@@RoadsOfAsiaBen Thanks! I have not taken Amtrak, I wanted to try the Missouri River Runner back when I lived in KC but never got the chance to. If there were more frequencies/routes and we had high speed trains I’d be more compelled to take them more often but unfortunately that’s not the case.
Do ya know the back story of the 717?? It really isn't a Boeing aircraft, it was originated in St Louis as an MD-98 as I recall, and were sold to AirTrans which is why the "N" number ends in AT. I know because I worked for AT some 22 yrs ago when they bought these, but Boeing stepped in and bought MD so Boeing rebranded them to the 717. And eventually a deal went thru between SW and AT for SW to buy ALL the AT routes but the planes mostly went to Delta. So any of the 717's you see will end with the AT, you were parked next to N971AT at the gate. they were nice when new for sure. Not often at ATL do you go from gate straight to cleared for Take off. BTW all the AirTrans gates at ATL were on the southend of "B" concourse.
@@moparluvrsgagarage2898 Yes I do know the 717 was developed originally by McDonnell Douglas as the MD-95. I loved flying on the MD80s before they were retired by both American and Delta. As for Air Tran I never got the chance to fly on them before they merged, but I remember seeing their planes parked at MCI a few times when flying out of there.
Awesome flight on B717-200 N933AT I love B717-200s I miss the Angry Puppies so much. I hope you had a nice flight onboard B717-200 N933AT.
Still have the chance to fly on them in the United States! Delta and Hawaiian currently don’t have firm plans on when/how they’ll be retired.
That god they don’t.
Those engines sound are music 🎶 to my ears and made me fall asleep 😴 lol😂 I will like to fly the Boeing 717 before they retire
Definitely get on one if you can and if you do sit in the back near the engines.
Thanks for sharing this. Greensboro is my home airport. I feel like I'm being welcomed home.
Thanks for watching!
Great fly! Have you ever taken Amtrak before?
