If I could, I would pull one straight from the boneyard and make it flight worthy once again!

@@benjaminbrown3939 They're quite a bit of maintenance and pretty thirsty so would be expensive to run. I like them though, flew many times on American Airlines 'Spirit 80''s

@@benjaminbrown3939 So would I. I would also remove all of the seats and double the fuel capacity. I wanted to triple it but It would exceed the Maximum Takeoff weight.

@@brnmcc01they are indeed quite expensive maintenance wise but it’d be cool to have atleast one flying as a heritage aircraft of some sort like people do with C47’s and regular DC-3’s and other aircraft

💯

Same. My favorite engine

Me too

Love them too. Wish more engines sounded like this. I don't like how engines are getting more quiet. Efficiency is good. But I don't like how manufacturers want them more quiet. Also wished the MD-90 still flew.

​@dehavillandcanadatwinotter9621 It's from 1988. That isn't efficient by today's standards.

@@twiff3rino28and the manufacturers didn’t want them more quiet either. They couldn’t care less how loud or quiet they are. Airports and residents around the airports are the reason for quiet engines. Also frequent flyers prefer quieter. Fly 50 or 70 flights a year and you’ll understand why all of us frequent have $350 Bose noise canceling headphones on our heads 😉

Love them!

These boys can run at 600mph for 40 years but my car engine can't run at 60 for 200000 miles...

@@jpthompson09 yes it can, proper maintenance is key. These engines see any and all possible preventative maintenance over their lifetimes, and run on a very strict maintenance schedule.

Thats why pratt and whitney put a kevlar belt around the whole fan blade section of the engine (just in case)

"Jennifer Riordan" hoax on

JR Ewing it does!

Oooohhh shit! It does look like the Concorde on approach. Good catch!

ITS A GHOST

It’s the Flying Dutchman

Damn good eye haha

Thats the Mad pitbull of all. back engines aircrath

I love the MD 80 but that is the worst seat on the plane

Until a blade gets thrown

My dad told me that the back seat on an MD80 is extremely loud because of how close you are to the engine.

Cathy Meyer what would you say is the best seat for engine view? 34E or something? Thanks

MTLTV1765 Pretty obvious there, sherlock xD

Is it a turbo fan

That is one of the engines airlines use on the A320, but NWA (Delta) doesn't have them on the A320.

The IAE V2500 (which is what this is) is an engine that was offered on the A320 class.

it's because Atlanta is there major Hub and headquarters of Delta

I know, I live here. Although, Southwest has a pretty big presence here now, so it's more like 2 Deltas, and a Southwest.

Well Southwest apparently has huge presents almost everywhere even in Orlando I guess you call it a focus City

Man, that concourse IS for Delta flights, but, tho are some Southwest airplanes, but what did you expect if Delta's hub is Atlanta Gateway?

tjperez69 I think Atlanta is like Delta's hub so you are correct about there being many Delta planes. They get some southwest and American's every so often. When I went to ATL last year from LGA, I didn't get to see many other airlines.

That MD90 thrust though!

It really is. Especially in person. Haven't been there for a few years now but my family always took airtran to Minnesota.

Busiest airport in the world.

You ever been to O'Hare

10:55 yep that's what the captain said

There was another engine start at 10:13 since they were only moving with one engine on, presumably to save fuel.

The first time I flew mid 80s was DC9-30 which must have pushing 20yo. Sat exactly like this vid. Close enough to see the wear on the fan blades. Thinking on good day this bucket has to be down a few hundred pounds of take off thrust. Any way we survived, and heard those engines the rest of the day....but not the gorgeous howling of these.

The MD-90 is the Mad Pitbull

Climb power is a calculated value and is generally quite high-powered. A reduced power takeoff can be beneficial, but will require that increase in power once airborne. Where runway length is more of a concern, perhaps a shortened runway entry point, more power is needed for the takeoff roll. And when your climb gradient doesn't need to be so steep, power can be reduced after takeoff. Otherwise, takeoff & climb power can be the same. Those are the three common scenarios.

And sure the plane responded, what a fuck1ng rocket. Glad they are still going. This as have no expiration date ... MD quality.

Craig Arndt That's an astute observation. Some aircraft/engine combinations do not allow climb thrust to be greater than whatever derated or flex takeoff power you use (e.g. MD-80 and JT8D-200 series engines)while others will allow you to derate your takeoff power to less than climb power as seen here (MD-90 with V2500's). I am not sure why the philosophical difference, but perhaps a performance engineer can explain further. At any rate, thought you might be interested. [Edited for unhelpful autocorrect.]

Well they are quieter than the MD-80 for sure. Are they quieter than the A320 as you say? In that case it all depends on where you sit on the A320. On a V2500 equipped A320 it will be quieter than the MD-90 from the equivalent distance in front of the engine but since you can sit father in front if the engine on the MD-90 you get less noise.

+TimeLapseSteve Wow ! I'm a retired Pilot (a bit hard of hearing) and those are the frequencies I can hear best, go figure !

IAE V2500*

+Jack Stormer I think they're tons quieter, RB211's scream at idle. 2500's hum.

No doubts about it but hey, their buzzsaw noise is huge xD

Wait, the MD90s use the v2500? OHHHH THATS WHY I SOUNDED JUST LIKE THE A320.

Yh they do sound alike tbh

They sound similar to RB211-535 because they both have 22 blade fans

ok

MD88Pilot dc9?

Same here :)

Nick Aviation - same seat as ur mom. 😂 🤣

cretors32 they never did. The MD-95/717 did.

This is IAE V2500 just like on many airlines 319/320/321

It did seem like a long taxi!

Larry Vidin taxi does not take an hour

ATL to VPS is 45 mins

LOL

That was quick for Atlanta actually.

I think that grinding sound is the engines not being in sync. I don’t know much about the mad dogs, but most modern jets have digital engine control which will sync the engines. I think the Airbus family has the most pleasing sound because they always seem to be perfectly in sync!

Because it’s the same engine

Konstantin Cornwell A321s use the same engine
