MD -80s, DC-9s. Watching the take off performance, hearing those engines, especially reversers being back memories of all the trips I've made on these amazing planes (out of Detroit). Thank you for sharing this video.
The typical high-rate climbout of the MDs always thrills me! I probably had a hundred flights on them through the years and am so glad some were captured for posterity.
MD 80's are a special type of aircraft from my understanding. It's aerodynamics are one of a kind. It's tail wing and rear engines particularly genius. It's a work horse and will never be forgotten from my experiences traveling. Onward 🌈 to blue skies and adventure.
Jumped off the ground like its pants were on fire! 🔥 I always like how you get that pure engine sound once you get away from all the noise bouncing back off the ground.
Filmed long before the pandemic, if you used the phrases "Covid 19" or "Social distancing" or mandatory face masks when using public transportation at the time, people would think you crazy! Good catch on that retro Continental aircraft during takeoff! Too bad the clouds obscured the lake during the climb.
This video had to been done during the summer time as there is green still on most of the trees, I am very observant to notice things. Ahh and yes video was filmed in 2017 not 2024

Climbing like a homesick angel!

The approach to Detroit showed how rural it is over in that area. That was really cool and unexpected.

Greetings from Switzerland!
@@SaschaRuggli you and me both! & thank you!
Very steep take off & I LOVE IT!!!!!!
At least I got lucky enough to fly one of these gorgeous planes before they all sadly retired.
Damn, dude was like out of 3,000ft by the end of the runway lol.
one of the best most reliable aircraft ever made.... probably have flown 500 k miles on those
Every time I see a MD-80/717/DC-9 take off, Born To Run plays in my head
I love it!! You can’t go wrong with McDonnell Douglas & Bruce Springsteen!
Miss the Mad Dogs!

Nope, it was filmed in October 2017..
That climb out though….
The DC-9’s & MD-80’s never seemed to disappoint with their 20 degrees nose pitch on takeoff 😉
