MD-80 "Maddog" Tribute | American Airlines Retirement
Channel: Navgeek Aviation
Date: 2018-10-28

The MD-80 is one of the most recognizable aircraft in the world, with airlines like, Delta and American, using the plane as workhorse, performing the short-medium haul routes to maintain the hub-and-spoke system. However, airlines are starting to replace the MD-80 with far me fuel-efficient aircraft like the A320neo’s and the 737 MAX. American Airlines is choosing the Boeing 737-800 as its replacement, Delta invested in Boeing 717-200s, Allegiant is replacing its MD-80s with the Airbus A320 family, and Alaska replaced its MD-80 fleet with more Boeing 737s.
