There has been a rumour in my company(SAS) that we might be getting some md90 from Delta. Now it seems that some people believe that these airplans do not have any speedbrakes. Personally I wouldn't think so, but hey, you never know.

Can any Delta pilot shed any light on this?

Well Gentlemen, I looked over various pictures of Delta Airlines MD90 flight decks and you'll be happy to hear that they are equipped with spoilers... so you should be ok if SAS decides to buy them.

Take Care

Which brings up the questions:

How many of the 16 90's is DL getting rid of?
When?
What will they be replaced with?

i imagine they'll replace them with 737-800s - after all, they've ordered s*** loads of them.

(yay, my 100th posting!!!!! :) :) ;) :) :))
