[@dehavillandcanadatwinotter9621]

Love them too. Wish more engines sounded like this. I don't like how engines are getting more quiet. Efficiency is good. But I don't like how manufacturers want them more quiet. Also wished the MD-90 still flew.

[@twiff3rino28]

​@dehavillandcanadatwinotter9621 It's from 1988. That isn't efficient by today's standards.

[@tritontransport]

@@twiff3rino28and the manufacturers didn’t want them more quiet either. They couldn’t care less how loud or quiet they are. Airports and residents around the airports are the reason for quiet engines. Also frequent flyers prefer quieter. Fly 50 or 70 flights a year and you’ll understand why all of us frequent have $350 Bose noise canceling headphones on our heads 😉

[@FredtheDorfDorfman1985]

Jet engines are so cool. It's amazing that they can spin at the speeds that they do, for hours and hours, day after day, with all that force on the blade roots, and not have blades flying off like high speed bullets all the time. Of course there is the rare fan blade that might come off, but thankfully it's not often. It was unfortunate what happened to Jennifer Riordan on Southwest 1380.

[@Amoney1109]

it's because Atlanta is there major Hub and headquarters of Delta

[@TonyP9279]

I know, I live here. Although, Southwest has a pretty big presence here now, so it's more like 2 Deltas, and a Southwest.

[@lucashuezo4667]

tjperez69 I think Atlanta is like Delta's hub so you are correct about there being many Delta planes. They get some southwest and American's every so often. When I went to ATL last year from LGA, I didn't get to see many other airlines.

Great video of this MD-90 flight. Engines definitely sound like those on Airbus A320's, possibly the A321 and A319 too (or real close). Likely much more fuel efficient vs. old jet engines that were on old DC-9s. Great "buzzsaw" sound from the engines. I will miss the legacy workhorse Dc-9s that Delta/NWA had in their fleet.

[@nhlandaviation5791]

That is one of the engines airlines use on the A320, but NWA (Delta) doesn't have them on the A320.

Fantastic Delta Airlines Takeoff :-)

[@CraigArndt]

Great video. Looks like they wanted a little more power after take off, very cool!

[@shhmule]

Climb power is a calculated value and is generally quite high-powered. A reduced power takeoff can be beneficial, but will require that increase in power once airborne. Where runway length is more of a concern, perhaps a shortened runway entry point, more power is needed for the takeoff roll. And when your climb gradient doesn't need to be so steep, power can be reduced after takeoff. Otherwise, takeoff & climb power can be the same. Those are the three common scenarios.

[@38911bytefree]

And sure the plane responded, what a fuck1ng rocket. Glad they are still going. This as have no expiration date ... MD quality.

[@HEDGE1011]

Craig Arndt That's an astute observation. Some aircraft/engine combinations do not allow climb thrust to be greater than whatever derated or flex takeoff power you use (e.g. MD-80 and JT8D-200 series engines)while others will allow you to derate your takeoff power to less than climb power as seen here (MD-90 with V2500's). I am not sure why the philosophical difference, but perhaps a performance engineer can explain further. At any rate, thought you might be interested. [Edited for unhelpful autocorrect.]

Even though on takeoff sitting right next to the engines may be cool, the level of vibrations between the front and back MD-80/90/717 is night and day. I've flown in both spots and definitely the front is the way to go. At cruising the level of vibrations in the back is insane.

The first time I flew mid 80s was DC9-30 which must have pushing 20yo. Sat exactly like this vid. Close enough to see the wear on the fan blades. Thinking on good day this bucket has to be down a few hundred pounds of take off thrust. Any way we survived, and heard those engines the rest of the day....but not the gorgeous howling of these.

[@lisalu910]

I just got off a Delta MD90 a few hours ago. Sat in 29E over the wing and was surprised how quiet the engines were compared to some MD80's and A319/20's I've taken recently.

[@calvinrovinescu6166]

Well they are quieter than the MD-80 for sure. Are they quieter than the A320 as you say? In that case it all depends on where you sit on the A320. On a V2500 equipped A320 it will be quieter than the MD-90 from the equivalent distance in front of the engine but since you can sit father in front if the engine on the MD-90 you get less noise.

Why do they always have that grinding sound in the 80s and 90s? I mean I've been on enough of them to know it's normal. Im just super curious what makes that sound in particular. It's sounds like a bearing going bad on one of the shafts the engines turn.

[@orlandocfi]

I think that grinding sound is the engines not being in sync. I don’t know much about the mad dogs, but most modern jets have digital engine control which will sync the engines. I think the Airbus family has the most pleasing sound because they always seem to be perfectly in sync!

That's a long taxiing-out! And because the efficiency of a jet engine is extremely low at cycling speeds(it requires probably a few thousands horsepowers just for that low speed) it should be a not unsignificant amount of fuel cost just for the time it rolls out to the take off lane.
