Pinnacle FO, keep up the great work! I work for 9E too, customer service/ramp and I've been very impressed with the professionalism and skill of our crews. Don't let anyone get you down. I'll be applying for a FO spot soon and I look forward to working with such great pilots. I understand that Browntail is upset at folks like us, but thats not our problem...its his. I'll miss the 9 as well. Take care everone. Be safe!

Default Dc-9
I'll miss the DC-9 as well. As a former airport ops employee, I remember when the last 9 of Eastern Airlines arrived at KPBI back in 1990. Also, I always though that those "POWERBACKS" were real kicka$$.

As far as the DC-9. I am flying the MD-82 and 83 and am not in love with it. I am all about being comfortable. The A/C in the jet leave a lot to be desired. I like the Boeing NG for a nice office enviroment. Also the MD just doesn't climb high enough to get out of the wx. I like being up at 390 or 410 to enjoy a smooth ride. (Hey Caneman, SMOOOOOTH)
Mike,

The good old DC8-73 has no problems at FL42000 making it a SMOOTH Ride. A bit on edge, gotta keep an eye on the bird. But all in all Smoooooth.
