TRIP REPORT | Delta Airlines - MD 88 - Atlanta (ATL) to Washington DC (IAD) | Economy

- Delta's Mad Dog has been the workhorse of its fleet for decades, but new and modern aircraft have now replaced it.
This was an absolutely incredible flight experience, mainly because of how welcoming the crew was to us bloggers and avgeeks! Row 33 is well-known as the best seat on board due to its amazing view of both the engine and wing.
This may be one of (if not) the last MD-80 trip report on my channel since they will now be very hard to find in commercial service. A few airlines are left operating the type, most notably DAT (Danish Air Transport), who'd I'd love to fly, and LASER Airlines.
I hope you enjoy this Mad Dog sendoff!

I don't think there is anything better than seeing the sunset from 35000 feet. Gorgeous views. Plus, thank you MD-80 for so many years of service. Your roar will be missed.
That's an excellent aircraft, will miss the serious smooth engine tune as they taxi before take off. Long live the MD-88s
What an awesome sunset to say goodbye to such a magnificent plane 13:41
It is like a dream come through when you got to see the cockpit. The the Steward opened the door and showed it to you.
Last time I was on a MD-88 was Alaska Airlines SFO-SEA in the 80s. I was your age. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I took a Delta MD-88 to Disney World as a kid, and they're great little workhorses for the sky! Long live the mad dogs!
thanks for the trip Q...yes you had the BEST seat for sure...i'm so glad you have the aviation blood in your veins...good job Q✈✈
I originally didn't like the MD 80 series because I was more into the original TriStar which was the Boeing 727. But as I flew on more of the Mad Dog flights, I grew to appreciate the aircrafts. Now, along with the 707, 727, 747, 757, and both wide- body TriStar aircrafts being the L1011 and the DC-10 / MD 11, I'm really going to miss this aircraft as well.
The Delta MD-80, in its 1980-2000 livery, was the first plane I remember ever taking. Christmas break, 1995; JFK-CAE, with a layover in ATL. The black nose cone and stripe along the windows looked incredibly sleek.
The MD80 is my fav specially from American; but I really liked how Delta gave them that little fresh cabin look with their new bulks decoration and hanging divisions between cabins
Thanks QFS !!!
Sad to see the Mad Dogs go 😢.
Thanks for the video 🙂
Spectacular video! Your photography is excellent and the music is great! I really enjoy this channel.
16:06 Qfs and Itripreport voice reveal
Things like these only happen once in a life time
mate everyone knows there voices already
Not really, IG lives for a while now n if you watch his Alaska Airlines ANC-SEA vid he did something has never done before!
@@Waldo1411 yes I watched that vid, it was very surprising!!
I love to see iTripReport going travel with you anyway .
I loved/enjoyed flying on the Mad Dogs on Delta to ATL. Always been a fun ride. Especially in turbulent weather. She would cut through the clouds like a hot knife through butter. Gonna miss her.
Definitely going miss the Mad Dogs but at least Delta will still fly the Mad Dog B717 love that plane keep up the great job
Never ever got to fly a Mad Dog! Sadly, never will :( Walked aboard a Northwest MD88 parked at the overnight gate one time way back in 97 while working for another airline at YYC. I LOVED that plane! Thank you for this. I am impressed by the rear lav size and how it looked fresh new and clean. Better than most boeings!
Mad Dog Madness! I flew these a lot between OMA and ATL or MSP. Thank you Q-Man for one last look :)

I couldve flown on the last Delta MD88 out of Omaha and sat in row 33E from OMA to ATL which 33E is the best seat to sit on that airplane due to it being right in front of the engine, even though chaos erupted due to james scurlock and george floyd protests that night and curfews installed, it was the first day non essential domestic travel could resume since march 16th in Omaha due to moving into Phase 2 of reopening
In 1992 I went from JFK to st paul minnesota on the MD-88, very cool airliner. It's sad to see it go.
Plenty of fond memories on MD-80 DC9. Flew them many of times on USAir while stationed in Norfolk
Super video, I love aviation ❤️
The MD88 was a great airplane! I have flown on numerous MD80 and 90 airplanes.
Dulles is one of my faves. Take the mobile lounge while you are there! You would have liked the old observation deck also. Right underneath the old tower
Love this content, love the MD serie, love, love, love!
Gonna miss those 88s and their steep take-offs. Anyways, excellent vid! Thank you!
Thanks as always for a great and nostalgic flight on these wonderful aircraft !! And yes they are noisy !! Great views en route !! Tx again Q !! Well done !!
So the last roadway that you flew over before airport property at Dulles (Air & Space Museum Parkway), there's a car parked on the right side or the roadway next to the two museum signs - that was me! I filmed the last arriving MD-88 at Dulles. Even found the Captain of the flight on Facebook!
Hey bro I’m from DC, hope u enjoyed it here💪🔥✌️
Bring it back :( I miss the mad dog already but it’s legacy will live on. Great vid and I love the sound those planes make. Always love your content man. #Longlivethemaddog (Howdy from Amarillo tx btw)
If you ever have a long connection at Dulles, you should visit the Smithsonian Udvar Hazy Center. It's a huge facility that has full size aircraft that can't fit in the museum downtown. It has a Concorde, the Space Shuttle Discovery, and tons of other stuff. There's also an observation deck where you can see airplanes on approach to Dulles. It just reopened but you need reservations which are free.
Great job touring the mad dog!!! Keep flying through Atlanta
Back when I first visited the USA in the mid 1990s, I took a flight from JFK to LAX (on an Tristar!). It seemed that every flight that we passed over was a DC9/MD8X. Sad to see them go!
I will miss it, it was one of my favoriet planes.
looks like a lot of fun, wish I could have been there. cool part was the view out the rear door. thanks for sharing. be safe.
I flew this exact same aircraft (N900DE) on the early morning PHL-ATL leg that same day. One thing to add, this frame was the *100th MD-88* delivered new to Delta from McDonnell Douglas, of an eventual 120. The MD-80 series will always be my favorite aircraft type. I miss it already.
awesome trip report! So sad I haven't got chance to fly on one of these before they retired
1. Apply Masks And Sanitizer with You 😷
2. Maintain Social Distancing
3. Do Not Take So Much Risk
4. Sanitize yourself Before Entering Plane
5. Take Care Of Yourself
Quintin :)
Love You ❤
Loving the vids lately bro keep up the good work and stay safe 💓
Its so cool that you got to fly with the other enthusiast!
There used to be a galley at that aft service door. Delta removed them to add more seats.
Oh man I love that engine roar on takeoff and the steep takeoff, sad to see you go mad dog...
At 7:23 who else thought of Redriveraviation's intro?? Great video btw QFS!!
Are you gonna make a video to the Delta museum ? This could be awesome
I visited it in 2017, and it's awesome! Eventually I will for sure!
chickfila is a must in Atlanta its even closed on sundays in the airport and thejazzguy13 aviation always gets chickfila when traveling
Nice
And you never saw American do anything like this. Delta did such a better send off! Congrats for Delta!!!
I must say that the Delta MD88 cabin looked not that much old. As a Canadian, i'd be more than pleased to find this kind of cabin on AC's 320s
This Q re-view is made possible by Chick-fil-A. After arriving earlier on a Mad Dog from IAH (a departure i was lucky enough to record) qman hops on another Mad Dog to IAD in preparation for the next day's final Mad Dog flight on Delta. qman and his camera catch the magical moments especially the beautiful sunset. After enjoying this video don't forget to like and sub. Well done Quebec Foxtrot Sierra and thanks for sharing!!
Wow awesome 😎 👏 bro
Great vid! 🙂🙂
Love this guy
Nice video, never got a chance to get on a 88. Stay safe
Great video man!
I have flown this plane for a long time now sad to see it go...

Hi handsome, nice video as usual
Which suction cup do you use for the mounting of the GoPro ?
I miss the Chewbacca Planes 🥺🥺

JaweaiAqii
La verdad verdad leer a la
0:10 ATL-ATL this should be interesting...

The next time you're at the Atlanta Airport, you need to try The Varsity...
I actually miss Delta's 747
DELTA!!!!!!!
U a great youtuber keep it up i hope u get the chance sometime to ride in fist class Suites
World’s longest jetway at 8:12
imagine having a bad day, so you leave so others ave good day still.
Are they going to put their md 88 in delta museum?
😀👍
Mitsubishi should make a similar aircraft now that they bought the crj programm.
16:23 But what is the QFS rating?
Here is a trivia question for you. Most MD-80 were 2-3 seating, 2 on the left, 3 on the right. Delta was 3 on the left and 2 on the right. Why?
Who was the lady in the red jacket taking photos? Is she a trip reporter too? I noticed her in other reviews of this flight, and it sure looks like she's doing a flight review as well.
I've been wondering the same thing. I never got a chance to ask her, and from what I know nobody knows what she does
@@QFSAviation I love your channel, but we need to talk man to man. When you see a smart looking beautiful woman taking the same interest in aviation as you have. YOU TALK TO HER!!!! :) Any woman who shares your interest in tin cans that fly is a gem to have as a friend at least.....Thanks for the prompt reply.
How tall is Quintin
6.3 I thi k
2:49 What's the context behind here?
2:30
The MD 80s some of them were super loud but the newer versions were loud but not as loud the DC-9s those were extremely loud and so loud that it was hard to carry on a conversation in the back of those planes, the Boeing 717 those are the same engines as the 737 Next gen airplanes not too loud
True I flew a DC9 once and got stuck right next the engine, had a massive headache from that noise and hum it produced by the time we landed!
0:09 it's iad not atl
Second😎
Why is your phone screen cracked
14:45 are those planes parked there due to Coronavirus?
Yes
And you showed the napkin too.
hello
Good thing bloody Kevin sun is not here in the comments section.
Cut out of the report was Zach stealing Quintin's camera during a time lapse
How do you afford to fly so much?
Fourth
fourth
first 😜
I was second
Same pants on the last few videos.
Same mask.
Can you give me a shoutout in your next video?
Yet again how do you have this much money to buy this many trips? An $183 ticket. U constantly spend more than that. How? What do you do for a living? Why is answering that question so hard ?
the points guy is wack
Ethan Stein yes
This is USSR aircraft.....😅😂🤣
