N8928E was one of the oldest aircraft still flying, having been continually in service since 1967, starting with Eastern Airlines, then serving with Northwest and finally, Delta. I was lucky enough to get a flight on this aircraft from Detroit to Chicago and back again on August 4, 2010. I documented nearly the whole flight for historical purposes, as this frame was one of the very last of the DC-9-30s to remain in operation with a major carrier in the USA.
This is flight 1767, a Delta Air Lines flight. The plane was still wearing Northwest colors.
Today this aircraft is a pile of scrap. It was destroyed for recycling and parts not long ago. What a sad fate for such a beautiful plane.
