ive just looked on planespotters.net at nwa fleet history and was suprised to see they still have a few 40year old dc9s in their fleet,my god talk about built to last. some of them are ex austrian airlines and sas.i remember them flying into manchester when i was a kid.
it makes the jet2 fleet look a whole lot younger now.i wonder how many of the newer generation of aircraft will still be flying at 40+ yrs..
