Especially with an airplane that old, if the reliability was as good as everyone says, I think I would stick with what was working for NWA.
Any other ideas?
"...stick with what was working for NWA." sounds like a good idea.
No. Seriously, I think the DC-9 was one of the most reliable fleets at NWA. What is being done differently, I don't know.
