Delta Airlines MD-88 [N912DE] Atlanta to Washington Dulles | Flight

Growing up I never thought I would say that I would miss the MD88 or the 727 for that matter. I actually do miss them. The engines on those planes had so much character!

@@justinisapilot I always knew that when all of those classics we’re going to retire one day, it always brought a tear to my eye knowing that the modern aviation that is replacing “True” aviation would not even come close to a 727, DC-9 etc. it’s so sad…

Great jet! An American icon!

Thanks for uploading...Short take off roll..I thought it might be kind of lite...Weird not to see the wings bobbing around like crazy..

[@leezinke4351]

Long live the Mad dogs!

[@motormusique]

These are still flying? I flew on these once and I enjoyed that it still felt like a plane that you can hear and feel, instead of a flying computer where you're completely insulated

[@jonahair747]

I couldn’t agree more! But, unfortunately no, they retired the Maddogs in 2020 😔 all we have left are the 717’s

[@pirb3]

Nice, dude. Do I see at 3:42 a DC-9 or B717?

[@jonahair747]

Thank you & that would be a 717. I wish that was a DC-9!

[@MxTraeumer]

717
