A total of 40 MD-90s (later 20) were to be assembled under contract in Shanghai, People's Republic of China under the Trunkliner program, but Boeing's decision to phase out the MD-90 resulted in only two built by Shanghai Aircraft.
Ukupno 40 MD-90 (kasnije 20) su se po ugovoru trebali sklopiti u Šangaju u sklopu "Trunkliner programa", ali Boeingova odluka o gašenju proizvodnje MD-90 je rezultirala sa samo dva izgrađena kineska zrakoplova .
