    Thus the 717 maintains its record of no fatalities

      Or hull losses..... The Douglas Aircraft Company designed a great aircraft for McDonnell Douglas and Boeing to build variants of. Also, the few carriers who have operated the type have exceptional safety records. There are no questionable operators of the type.
      I also find it interesting how Delta never ordered any 717s from Boeing but has become the primary operator.

    I flew on AirTran 717s a lot back in the day. One of my favorite planes. I think that most if not all of the 717s Delta still has are former AirTran planes.

    Fly a Delta 717 nearly every week. It's always a relief when I'm on it rather than the old Delta b737-800's that fly into Huntsville, AL and other smaller cities that are far more cramped.

      This particular aircraft (N955AT) had its engines removed and made available as spares for other planes to use. However, this plane is not a write-off, it will be taken care of, repaired on site at Charlotte and returned to service.

      The mad dog (md-80/85/90/ 717 is by far the most comfortable regional jet out there in my opinion. Love the fact that while not as fast as its older siblings, the 717 takes off like a rocket.

    I’ve never understood the “brace” positioning. In the head down orientation, if there’s a forward impact one could reason a severe neck injury would be possible. Of course that could also happen if passengers are seated upright. Staring downward like that is definitely not going to keep my mind off the possible impending doom. I’m 100% certain that I’d not want the floor to be the last thing I see in the event of a crash. If the Grim Reaper’s coming for me I’m going to look him straight in the eye.

    • @6z0
      @6z0 Рік тому +3

      Not being in a brace position will almost guarantee a neck injury in any violent landing. Your body cant overcome the forces of a 50+ ton aircraft. If you are sitting upright, no matter what your face and neck will fly forwards. If your head is already in that position, it puts much less tension on your neck when you hit the ground.

    B717? Geez. Delta needs to upgrade it's fleet. They're not my first choice, but I recently flew Delta back from Europe (Dublin). The overseas leg was on a 767 to BOS. Then the final leg to LAX on a 757. I swear, it was like going back in time.

I regulalry watch clips on this channel which would likely indicate that I'm quite fond of these incredible machines. I spend half my life on these things, so hating them would seem kinda silly don't you think? My previous point was that there's a huge difference in perspective between what a CEO of a struggling airline should do versus what a plane geek would do given the latter's emotional nostalgic attachments.
