Can anyone tell me which airlines are still flying the DC-9? I have Flight1's Iron Knuckles DC-9 and like it very much. I was wondering who still uses her currently.Larry :-wavehttp://www.air-source.us/images/main/asgif.gif http://www.air-source.us

I can't name them all, but Northwest Airlines has about 150 in use. Ranging from the DC-9-31 to the DC-9-51, Northwest shows no signs of getting rid of them. Kinda reminds me of American Airlines Super 80's :)Eric

Apart from Northwest, there's Dutch Caribbean Airlines and Aeropostal that I know of in the Caribbean.USAF and USN fly them as hospital aircraft and troop transports.Probably a lot of airlines in South America and Africa picked up the ones the rich airlines dumped for 737s and A320s in the 1990s.

Thanks for the info guys. Now to look for a Northwest repaint of the Iron Knuckles.Larry :-wavehttp://www.air-source.us/images/main/asgif.gif http://www.air-source.us

Also Midwest Express flies DC-9-30s(and -15s). There is a good Midwest Express repaint here at Avsim. PS:Speaking of DC9s, does anyone know of a good DC-9-15?

TWA flew a bunch - don't know what AMR did with them.USAir had a bunch - don't know if they were retired Continental also had a bunch - Texas Air flew nothing butMidwest Express still flies them exclusively I think - though they may be upgrading to newer jets as they are cheap and avialableAirTran is all DC-9 and B-717 based, it was all DC-9 when it was ValueJet.Air Canada had a huge fleet, though they are all retired now.Evergreen and Airborne Express, both cargo carriers, have large fleets.On the west-coast PSA flew them, as did Hughes Airwest. Both re-paints can be found at AVSIM (I love the Hughes "Top Banana" scheme.In the now gone category:Piedmont; Republic; Ozark all flew the DC-9.

:-wave Tyler JohnsonHow could you forget Eastern or Midway? Or even Delta???? wow... yikes I cant beleive anyone could forget Delta! Oh yeah, and lets not forget Hawaiian flying the -15, the -30, and the -50 (just not all at the same time :))Anyway, those are just some that popped into my head while reading this!http://home.attbi.com/~ijettyler/TJhalban.jpg

I didn't know if Delta's were DC-9 or MD-80s. Hawaiian retired their last DC-9 last year, replacing that fleet with new 717s.
