Anyone know if that stuff still exists?
Avic is essentially building an updated 717. They dumped the avionics package and went with Collins Pro Line 21. The nice thing about the Collins Pro Line 21 is that it works with nearly everything else Delta has in it's newer jets like the 737, 777, 767-400 and the newer AirBus products. If the picture looks a whole lot like a CRJ cockpit, it is because this particular off the shelf solution is lifted largely from that application.
I like the tape to hold the slats up (still a DC9 'eh? )
