    Even though this aircraft is really a Boeing aircraft, it does have Douglas heritage, I miss the DC9 and I will miss the MD88, the 717 is the now only T tail airliner left that not a regional jet. All other mainline airliners have wing mounted engines like the ubiquitous 737 and A320 family jets, and they are 6 across seating in economy along with the 757. The DC9 and the MD80/90 and 717 are 5 across seating in economy. But there is now an Airbus airliner with Bombardier heritage that Delta is now taking delivery of, and Jetblue will start taking delivery of later this year, that even though it has the usual wing mounted engines, does have 5 across seating in economy, and thats what I like about the aircraft that was formerly known as the CS100/300

    Hi Skylite, like you said, it's got a little "MD" blood, it's like a child that been adopted, over time they take, the adopted families traits. Theirs to much 'BOEING 'there's. And the 717's have some age on them, their day's are probably numbered as well. The landing gear mechanism is way to quite. Honestly i thought the Flight Crew had forgotten to,configure the flaps/slats for take off, you made it, that's the the important thing. Looking for your new material. I sure hope...i didn't ruffle anyone's feathers. But it's got the traits of MD, it's far from being a"MAD DOG"! Take Care Skylite, Stay well, safe and happy up there, my friend.

    Wasn't this an MD-95 before Boeing acquired it and changed it to the 717? I guess for me that's why I didn't understand why everyone was so sad when they retired the MD-80/90 Lol, You still have this and it sounds the same, just my thoughts.

      They are, but only slightly. The first notch of flaps on the 717 is almost impossible to see.

A lot of times, the takeoff flap settings is so small, you can barely see the difference.

    Nice. Just curious. What kind of virus screening did you have to go through?...questions, temperature tests etc. It also seems like masks are optional or...? Thanks.

    • @sla31
      @sla31  Před 4 lety +2

      There was no additional screening. It’s an interesting situation. Because of HIPAA laws, the airlines are not allowed to ask passengers any type of medical questions. Even if it’s to safeguard the other passengers. I used to work for American Airlines, and we were told in our training that passengers with infectious diseases were not allowed to fly. But, despite that, we were also told that we were not allowed to ask them if they have, have had, or suspect they may have any type of sickness. It violates their medical rights. So... is that something that might change after this? Maybe. But for now, it’s still illegal for airlines to really do much because of people’s “medical rights.” As for masks. They were required on board all of the flights unless the passenger was under 10 years old (I think), or you had a medical reason to not wear one. Again, the airlines can’t ask to see proof of that. So anyone can say that they medically can’t wear a mask and the airline cannot force them. As for the airports. They were not required to be worn inside the terminals. I did, a lot of other people did. But it was not required. I’ve seen a few airports like Phoenix changing that. But so far Tulsa, Houston, and Atlanta, which were the three airports I visited on this trip, it was not required inside the terminal.

Medical stuff was very "touch and go" at the airlines haha. It's the same with TSA as well. They have to follow the same HIPAA rules, so they can't ask medical questions either. Want to take a gallon of water though the checkpoint? You can't right? Because 3 oz. of liquid is the max. Wrong. You show up with a gallon of water, and as soon as you say "it's for medical purposes." Even if that purpose is to "take a pill." They have to let you take it though. They aren't allowed to ask any specifics about the "medical condition." They are allowed to test the liquid at that point, but they can't deny you entry.

You know how us American's can be about our rights. A lot of people aren't too eager to give up rights even if it's for the greater good. As for me. I wasn't really very nervous. And once I got to the airport and saw how empty they were, I really wasn't nervous at all. I took my own personal precautions which I felt protected me pretty well, but there were so few people in the airports, it wasn't hard to distance at all. On this flight, I was the only person in the last four rows, and I had the whole row to myself on every flight.
