@@massimolettuce One day I was flying from the City of Medan leaving for Jakarta on a Lion Air MD-88 flight (a lot of people knows how bad the services are), it wasn't long before (or after) Garuda Indonesia rebrand itself entirely. IIRC, I was looking at the plane before entering it but somehow I feel like it's gonna crash (yeah, I still remember some part of it) so I tried to run back to the waiting room letting the plane to leave (even officers and some passengers were overwhelmed by the situation as the officers along with my nom trying to get me onboard) at the end of the day, they end up giving me a substitute flight with a much better seat on a Lion Air B737

My CAP squadron was invited by World Atlantic Airlines for a private tour of the MD-80 and what an experience. Its a heck of an aircraft and my favorite part was the stairway in the back. When it opened it basically SMACKED down against the ground and it scared everyone.

[@talhayildirim7616]

Amazing video🤩

[@bg147]

My mom worked for Ozark Airlines and we would fly the DC-9 and the MD-80. They were such great planes. If you sat in the back, the resonance of the two motors was the best. I was on a MD-80 just several years back for American, I believe. The entire line including the MD-90 and 717 is fun, but the DC-9 and MD-80 were favorites.

I flew a lot on these during my childhood and teenage years and they were awesome, if you seated at the very back of the passenger cabin you could hear those JT8D 217 roar on takeoffs and landings but if you seated at the front it was very quiet.. they also were very comfy and roomy.. Operators I flew with were Aeropostal, Laser and Aserca Airlines.. Laser still flies them back and forth between Mexico and Venezuela.

Actually the aft stairs were locked closed during flight, even if you operated it, it couldn't open. It was a nice and fun plane to fly, as you'd work a little bit more than other more modern planes. Interesting fact: in an engine failure event, the Autothrottle remained engaged and actually gave you a higher thrust limit on the remaining engine, were the autothrottle on more modern planes like the 737NG just must be disengaged. As flight dispatcher, I did a zero flaps takeoff in the cockpit in SAWH where we needed to rocket climb on a obstacle limited runway. Loved it.

Supposedly, after Boeing bought out McDonnell Douglas the plane was re-designated as the Boeing 717 - and it may still be flying under that designation. I got to sit in the cockpit of one in Milwaukee while waiting out a storm, and damn if it wasn't the MD-80, (previously called the DC9-80) that I spent years building the electronics for the fuel systems. I have a lot of fond memories of that plane. And - at least in the Boeing variant, the engines weren't any louder than other jets I've been in.

[@keithfreitas2983]

You are right, It was designated MD95 then changed to B717 when Boeing took over. Boeing refused to sell the aircraft and tried to to get MDC customers change their order to B737. Many Customers went to Airbus. Currently Hawaiian flys B717 inter-island and there is a few flying internationally. Worked at MDC 1987 - 2002 in Long Beach as an Air raft Dispatcher.

Geez, only the last few years these were taken out of service by Delta and American here in the US. Was born in the 80s and have probably been on more flights on one of these or a DC9 which is even louder for 60% plus of my total flights inside the US. Flew on a Delta (formerly Northwest) DC9 as recently as 2013. Also, the Ilyushin IL-62M, the procedure is to put the reverser buckets out before touching down.

[@tionstav5799]

Most planes, featiring a tail exit such as the MD-80 had a small wind vane installed that keeps the tail door closed in flight after it was discovered to be an exploitable security flaw. Some hijacker known as "Dan Cooper" Used the tail exit on a boeing 727 to get away with a heist out of Seattle Tacoma airport. They dissapeared without a trace after jumping out the back with the spoils in poor visibility conditions. A huge gamble for survival. To this day, It is not known whether they died lost, or survived and ran away with the ransome cash.

Hawaiian airlines is still in fact flying this aircraft, allegiant Air just recently switched over to Airbus complete fleet and I believe their planes went over to a few Russian airlines

[@m.hstudioproductions6642]

Most people claim that the McDonnell Douglas MD-80(formerly known as the DC-9-80 & Super 80) is loud and ear-shattering, but the only reason they built it was to make more money for airlines since the plane had a longer fuselage to accommodate 130-172 passengers. Not to mention that Pratt & Whitney was in the process of updating the JT8D during the 1970s to be more quieter, fuel efficient and more powerful than the JT8D-1 through 17 Series, in the Fall of 1979 came the moment of truth, the JT8D-200 with its higher bypass ratio of 1.74:1 and larger fan. The engine entered revenue service in 1980 when the MD-80 Series was finally certified by the FAA for commercial service with Swissair being the very first operator of the type along with Austrian Airlines, Alitalia, American Airlines, TWA, Pacific Southwest Airlines, US Air, Scandinavian Airlines, North Central Airlines, Republic Airlines, Northwest Airlines, Midwest Express, ValuJet Airlines (Merged with AirTran Airways in November 1997), Delta, Midway Airlines, Reno Air, Air Jamaica, Austral Aerolineas, Spanair, Alaska Airlines, Aeromexico, Spirit Airlines and Continental Airlines.

[@agustinusreynaldi7101]

I had flight with Lion MD80/88 years ago, and entering the plane via tail stairs is bit weird.

[@skylineXpert]

I will always remember OY-RUE. My probably last md80 flight I was eager to sit in the rear but the crew said no.

[@nasanasa3]

Rear air stairs *could* be opened mid-flight until the "cooper vane" became mandated on them, since DB Cooper used the rear stairs on the 727 to parachute out with his ransom money. Since the MD-80 came out after that mandate, they all had that vane. The DC-9 before then, though, definitely.
