Too young to remember the "Deisel-8", GW? You must be extracting the urine! There are still around 150 of them flying out of the original 550+. Many of them now sport CFM-56s to improve the economy/range/noise factor.

Out of the six 4-holer jet liners of its generation, it has certainly proved one of the most enduring although, of course, it is not as beautiful as the less prolific VC-10 - but what is?
