A Fed on the MD88 program said today's FAA probably would not authorize the MD88 and MD90 as they did in the past. Without igniting the whole Douglas v/ Boeing debate, the MD's are not as "user friendly" as the Boeing equipment is. Besides, while I love the jobs the DC9 provides, it is an anachronism. Obama likes tax credits for "EnergySmart" stuff. Why not a tax credit for new airplanes? It's not like he isn't throwing 2Bn down a rat hole to promote trains. Lets hear it for "cash for JT8's" every JT8D traded for a CF34 is worth $4,000,000. |

I thought they got rid of the MD-80's in the early 1990's or even late 1980's.... One way or the other, they were a separate category from the 9. |
