We already got one from NWA, a DC-9-32. I understnd we got a real bargin on a low milage special. It came comlete with the Sept 2005 Inflight Magazine gift catolog, pillows and blankets. Trash in the seat back, fortunely the lavs had been serviced. All cockpit manuals and FOM included. However no engines. I understand cheaper than a used DA-20.

Ah...I didn't think it would be one of my Dad's machines. God only knows how many cycles they have! Brand Spankity new back in '69 or so they were. Funny thing is I've jumpseated on a few of them! I'll always sleep better in a DC-9 than a RJ.

It's not surprising they keep their own engines, those things are a headache in and of themselves
