    As of now all the "Mad Dogs" aka the DC-9 or MD-80's are gone. I traveled a lot on both. In fact, I was a passenger on the original "Baby Nine", that is the DC-9-14. It was 1/2 the size of the DC-9-80. My first time was on a DC-9-14 of West Coast Airlines, the next time was aboard a Hawaiian Airlines DC-9-14. That was in the 1960's.

      I love TUL. It's my second choice when flying out of the area I live. JLN is first simply because it's only about 20 min from my house. TUL is about a 1 hour drive, but it's a strait shot down I44. It's still small and convenient, but offered a decent number of flights and destinations. Thanks for watching!

      Are you flying an MD-80 or 90? Unfortunately, the maddogs don’t come to my airport anymore (Minneapolis) Way back in the day I remember flying an MD-80 from Minneapolis to Orlando Florida, and I remember us thinking “what a nice plane this is” it’s cool to see how far we’re come, but McDonnell Douglas will always have a place in my heart. The last MD90 I flew was in 2017, from Minneapolis to Atlanta. That was at least the best flight I’ve ever been on in my whole life.

      Airplanes pressurize and depressurize every flight; the structure expands and contracts slightly. They can only do that so many times.
