Went to the Boeing site and saw that Northwest had purchased some of these. My roomie (a big airplane guy) then proceded to rant again on being stuck on an NWA DC-9 two weeks ago while travelling in the US for work. Hopefully for his sake the two airlines he gets sent on the most use the short haul 787-3 when it comes out as he is sick of being on these old clunkers. He said the DC-9 was quite possibly the worst airplane experience he's had in 25 years...he's only 28 hehe but travels a lot and his last time on a DC-9 was in 1991.
From the esthetics point of view--the 787 gets two Fabulouses from us
