Yeah, I would assume they were trying to get that last text out to family or friends.

They should have retired the MD-80s 20 years ago.

didn't they just put out an ad saying they removed degree necessities for 90% of jobs and that "equity is the motive"?

As a dropout myself, who recognizes the stupidity in that ad for an airliner... this all checks out.

It was a Boeing 717 which is what the MD-95 was renamed after the Boeing/MD merger.

Delta retired their MD-88s and MD-90s in 2020.

The 717 is a great plane. They’re not super old, mostly manufactured in the early 2000s.

Offering Hot Box flights isn’t the worst idea I’ve ever heard. Need to make sure the cockpit has its own air supply, of course.
