4K 60FPS Takeoff Delta Air Lines MD 90 ATL-IAH

One of my last flights aboard one of the last flights of the MD 90 airplane. Though not as popular as the MD 88, this plane will be remembered alongside its fellow md-series planes as one of the most iconic
planes in the sky.

Now this... Is what I call and engineers perspective... Don't care about the scenery, don't care about the airport... JUST. THE. ENGINES

Fantastic video. I had a chance to fly a Delta MD-90 last February, and it didn't disappoint. Always loved the V2500 engine sounds on Spirit's A320s (which I flew pretty regularly before COVID), and figured that they would be even better up close :)

[@martydas6233]

Iconic plane! And these V2500 look awesome on it. Sad to see them go.

[@Ukraine2011]

That orange paint job on the fan is rather mesmerizing

[@cpunut]

Yea it's great and called a spinner

Love the mad dog 90

Watching this now after just becoming a DAL worker. I would have LOVED to deal with the pain in the butt of servicing these babies.

MD80/90 Series was the best ever produced IMHO

[@jcspotter7322]

Pretty strong opinion you got there. I personally put it behind the 757 because it can travel further and takeoff like a rocket

[@Sidevity19]

Almost sounded like an IAE V2500 engine. IMPRESSIVE ROAR !!!🤩🤩🤩

This is the IAE V2525, different engine on a different plane

[@moondeities]

@@jcspotter7322 Oh...sorry for that. I thought it was RR because of its spiral pattern on its spinner cone.

​@@moondeitiesThis engine looks similar to the RB211 like on the 757.

@@moondeities IAE and ROLLS ROYCE actually partnered for these engines so you are right in recognizing the design similarities!

Great vid. What were the passenger loads on these flights?

[@jcspotter7322]

The loads were about 60%, the 2 side has 1 person per row and the 3 side had 2 people with the middle seat blocked out. Though the back half was less full, nobody sat next to me on any of the flights.

[@nicolasgarcia7305]

JT-8Ds love the sound they make!

The md-90 didn't have jt8ds

The engine nearly sounds the same as IAE V2500 Engines!

That's because it it the IAE V2500

[@jameshonore1072]

how do you get atc audio like that during the flight?

[@jcspotter7322]

That wasn't atc, it's just background noise, fa announcements and such

[@januarioqueiroz3122]

The engine intake is too dirty as well as the compressor fans. It gives us the impression of being unbalance but, anyway, I like its sound!

[@jcspotter7322]

Nah, it's just fine

[@Wildlifesupernannyfan]

What seat numbers for best engine view on a rare MD-90 fuselage mounted engine jet plane?

[@jcspotter7322]

I sat in 36e, but this plane is retired now so unfortunately it doesn't really matter now.

[@russell7926]

Interesting it sounded like they powered up the engine after takeoff. Don't they usually power down once in the air and the landing gear is retracted?

[@jcspotter7322]

Do you have a timestamp to I can see what you're talking about?

[@eprn1n2]

The aircraft was taking off with a reduced power setting. Most takeoffs are at reduced power. When they selected climb power at 1000 feet it happened to be a higher power setting. I noticed that on the video as well.

[@burtonrider316]

Its the transition to climb power which is a function of cost index. So sometimes the cost index is higher than the de rate for takeoff.

[@CasamTheAnimator]

It's engine is too noisy, because there's too much vibration in the compressor maybe.

[@jcspotter7322]

That's just how the engine sounded; plus it sounds much louder because you're right next to the engine

[@milesdyson]

Or, maybe because you're RIGHT NEXT TO A JET ENGINE 🤔 😂😅

[@BLACKzj52]

It’s from the fan blades going supersonic. Newer engines with bypass gears don’t tend to spin as fast and thus, the buzz saw is (unfortunately) mostly eliminated or eliminated entirely

Not all the a320s have iae engines, there's a solid chunk (especially in Delta's fleet) with cfm engines
