Delta Airlines MD-88 [N912DL] Rainy/Steep Takeoff from Atlanta

[@robytar]

Been in MD-88 several times in 1st class on non rev flights. Could not imagine the noise sitting in the very back near the JT8Ds!

[@jonahair747]

That’s where all of the magic would happen. Sitting right in front of the JT8D was my first class every single time.

The MD-88 must’ve been super light! Awesome video!

[@jonahair747]

GabeSuper80 there were a total of 7 people on this flight 😂

[@gabesuper80]

Jonahair747 Jeez! Perfect time to go ride on some Maddogs 🤣

[@jonahair747]

GabeSuper80 Exactly! Since there’s only 10 people on almost every flight and they stuck them all in the front and I head straight to the back away from anyone anyways. I’ve got gloves I wear and a mask just in case 👍

[@gabesuper80]

Jonahair747 Works out perfectly! Also getting all those Maddog flights in before they get retired soon

The magnificent sound of those engines.

Really miss them I got to go on a couple last year but I wish I got to go on them again

[@TheDaddrummer]

Now that was steep. So many videos say steep takeoff that are not. That absolutely was!!!!

[@Mikeyp1054]

Fantastic video and sound

[@jonahair747]

Thank you very much!!

Wow! Great catch!

[@vijayart]

Please feel free to check out the MD-88 that I am currently building!

[@leezinke4351]

Great video!

[@ItsCoreyLynxxYall]

DC-9/MD-80/Boeing 717 is the best aircraft IMO.

[@jonahair747]

Agreed brother 🤙

I was gonna say something about how the pilots didn't like the rain so they shot straight up into the sky, but it's delta, not American
