Delta Air Lines Boeing 757-251 [N543US] takeoff ATL

Flight number: DL2911
Date: September 15, 2023
Registration: N543US
Route: KATL-KMCI
Flight time: 1 hour, 41 minutes
Note: My most anticipated leg of the trip, not because I was going home. Ship 5643 is a legacy Northwest Airlines bird, previously utilized on ETOPS routes to Hawaii. A newly refreshed cabin greeted the 199 passengers heading to Kansas City. Fun fact, the 75D and 75H (legacy NW ETOPS jets) are both configured for 199 passengers. The 75D lacks ETOPS ratings and equipment.
