Is the IS&S system a whole different system, or just flat-panel LCD/TFT to replace the old glass CRT tube screens?
I guess they need to upgrade some of the actual avionics to comply with all the new FAA requirements.

I agree that the MD88 is not great (really long, old engines) but the MD90 has the IAE engines, so surely some service life left in it, right?
