I got a ride up front in one once when I happened to be the only passenger on a scheduled flight. Neat experience. Climb out @ 6,000 fpm.

Nice. Our C-9B (DC-9-30) would rotate to 15 degrees nose up after takeoff. 20 for the MD-80.

My 1st jet ride in 1970 was on a DC-9. Quite a thrill.

Looking at the track log of one of the recent flights, you can see how these birds climb like rockets.
