Brings back fond memories of many a flight on a “Nine” with my dear departed parents in the 1970s-1980s. I remember in the 70s especially having to trade my jeans and t-shirts for a jacket and tie, because that’s what everyone did in those days.

[@Jeff-sp7bg]

Why did you trade your jeans and t shirt for dress clothes?

Thanks for sharing this classic footage! Nice seeing all the NW stuff in MSP and ORD.

I really enjoyed this! The taxi to the runway at MSP rivals AMS where you land in Belgium and taxi to The Netherlands. That was the butteriest of butter landings at ORD!

Me and my family took a lot of flights on Northwest, when it was known as Northwest Orient Airlines going as far back as 1957. Much of my DC-9 flights were on Eastern Airlines (a LOT of flights). I miss the DC-9s and I miss Northwest Orient and Eastern Airlines its why I watch these KZbin vids.

A few of those Eastern DC-9's (and 727's) ended up flying for NWA after Eastern went belly up...

It’s refreshing to see a landing where the pilot isn’t over controlling the crap out of the controls. Sure maybe it was relatively calm wind for this arrival, but there are times where the throttle is constantly going up and down and the flight controls are all over the place. This guy literally set the power and let the plane just fly on in. Very smooth and nothing overly dramatic whatsoever.

Love the Diesel-9 Series 30! They look great and sound great too, what's not to love?? Especially when it's a "turn-N-burn" takeoff! Thanks for the video my friend.

[@tristang6466]

Great! Thanks for uploading!

[@airplanepilot]

Excellent job with the camera capturing gate to gate!

[@glennavellino1172]

@16:16 the engines goes full power. @17:00 the plane finally takes off. Today it is not uncommon for planes to take longer than that before they take off
