Thanks for the info! I am very good at spotting all the differnces when we had our full fleet but the DC9's alluded me as I haven't been on one since I was a kid. I knew that they were on the older side but I was unaware that NWA is still flying planes that were manufactured in the 60's. I do know that with good maintenance they are completely airworthy, I was just unaware that they were that old! Our oldest at United were the 727s which where born in 1976 and 1977. I believe our oldest planes now are the 767-200s, which were born in 1981. I will have to look at the DC9 that flies in and out of HPN (Westchester County) when I commute on my RJ (GRRRRRRR) to work in Chicago!
