Delta Airlines MD-88 Takeoff from Atlanta (1990)

Yes that one sounds odd.

Love the Sabena. Wish they were still around.

Love the MD-88 whine. Glad they're still around.

I remembered Sabena 747's, but rather 300's... Surpising to see a -100 or -200 type!

When was this? I remember Sabena DC-10s at ATL but not 747s - for years the only passenger 747s at ATL were those of KLM. Delta briefly flew them in the early 70s but Eastern never had the type at all, and most international flights were DC-10s.

Thanks for posting these older videos. It's nice to take a step back in time.

there are some interesting power adjustments happening between 2:11 and 2:17 ...I've never seen that before.

nice video!

[GoUSofA]

@FelixMies Hmm, that is wierd. Almost like the pilots thought they needed more power, than back again. Or, their hand just slipped and it moved the levers forward.

[lovinthecoldplay]

that was almost 20 years ago great video

Best sound on takeoff.

[meteors6]

look at the old 727

[XJetPilot72]

I'm gonna miss those old MD-80's when they eventually get phased out. DL's are some of the newer ones; they have the PW JT8D-219's.

[minkyblack]

are those P&W engines?

[brownbrownson]

yup. either PW JT7D or JT8Ds.. i think they're the JT8Ds..

[minkyblack]

love the sound of those engines!

Great video! Light load onboard as well. Now everything a crappy CRJ and ERJ.
