Third leg of my MKE-DTW-ATL-DTW-MKE daytrip on NW. Video includes engine start, taxi, and takeoff from ATL's 26L. Filmed from seat 21A.

I love flying in DC-9's with the older engine sound!

[@ea90744]

very cool video of the DC9... thanks for sharing

[@musicman3005]

thats an awsome sound

[@rofonzo]

I miss NW. I'm from MSP and NW was OUR airline. No offense to DL and its fans but it's just the same, it's not "really" ours. And the DC9, what a classic, grand machine. It feels like riding around in an old Cadillac. Solid.

gotta feel outcast on this one. Northwest, Delta, Delta, Delta, Delta!
haha
but on the real...nice vids:D
keep it up

[@meteors6]

Now Delta changed there mind they are kepping the DC9's for awhile and Delta is putting Wi Fi in all of them

[@meteors6]

I can't get enough of the dc9s but its really sad delta is only keeping the -50's not the -30's and 40's it will be really sad when they go

I always thought the DC9-50 was a tad underpowered. The BR710 would have been perfect for that airplane. (Not the BR715, which makes the 717 overpowered)
