I miss the 9. Maybe it was just because it was my first jet, but I sure loved that machine. Coolest part was that when I was in middle school I would cut class and ride my bike to the airport. Sit at the end of 28R in PIT and watch the Allegheny / USAir DC9s landing. Then, years later, I was flying those very same airplanes.
That was in the era before the RJ scourge... when an armada of those little locusts darkened the skies stealing mainline jobs.
You never forget your first...wait, what are we talking about? Well, if it floats, flies, or...
I think we are still talking about the same thing. Carry on.
