You can tell that that is a very early production model because the tailcone is pointed later models had the beaver tail cone I worked on those aircraft as a mechanic for McDonald Douglas so that brings back memories for me anyways
Also what kind of engine does that thing have lunch again I worked on those at McDonald Douglas and that does not look like a Pratt & Whitney JT8D-217 The engine cowlings are completely different almost like the one she would see on an MD 90 and that is an MD90 Anyways just asking I still remember a few things from these old aircraft
This is an older video of this aircraft, I was positively surprised a couple of months ago, where I found this plane totally cleaned up from the outside!
Hi attben. There are several days in a year when they have "open doors" on that airport, so you can get on the plane and have it explained to you if you are interested.

It’s “McDonnell Douglas”
@@trickyz3609 Ronald McDonnell 😁
So cool! I want one in my backyard LOL! My fantasy is to buy a hundred of these and start my own airline :) - Red
The only places were you could see most of these aircrath flying are in atlanta, miami, fort loradale and San Martín.
I just want to touch one of its wings and sit in one of the pilot seats before I die. That's all.
Saddened view to see one of legendary aircraft sits on remote field, looking weary and abandoned, have no wings to fly freely again.

@@craftforceXL awesome thank you :)
Is that MD-80 no longer flying?
NO, it no longer flies. The plane is parked in MBX for years, engines removed...
At least, Delta still operates this plane.
@WPLU572 Trunked Radio there are still 28 left for American
The MD-90 is the king of md80 families. Its the mad Pit Bull
“World’s Quietest MD-80?” What kind of Super-80 is this? Quiet and MD-80 aren’t supposed to be in the same sentence 😂
Actually, this MD-80 was a testbed for a newer hushkit system designed for the aircraft to be more compatible with Chapter 4 noise restrictions.
Malik Howell Ah gotcha
Are they speaking in Russian language??
Nope, Slovenian language.
