What a great airline. Ruined by the parasitic unions!

Does anyone know why when they store DC-9s, the slat is retracted and flaps fully extended?

Hey Ryan - I gotta tell you - these videos are awesome...

I remember when Allegheny got these in 1975. Allegheny and Eastern did a DC-9 swap. Allegheny needed Series 30s and Eastern needed Series 50s. Several EAL DC-9-31s went to Allegheny in 1978 and all Series 50s went to Eastern. This is a sad video - the end of an airline. I remember traveling through ATL when it happened. Eastern had equipment parked all over ATL.
