Nope, they couldnt give them away even if they tried
They are the only 29 Glass Cockpit MD-90's in the world.
The B737 is still in service after 30 years, the MD90's have another 23 years to catch up!
Expect to see them joined by a smaller regional aircraft in the next year as the Airbus slowly comes out of service.

SV seem to be quite frugal, had it been EK the MD's would have gone as soon as their production ended, I was hoping they'd dump the type and go for the 738 or the A320.
Guess the desert it is for the MD after SV are through with them 20 odd years later, I doubt any one would want them then.
Any buyers for their 732?

I think the royal family will buy the 732's.....
The M90's arent exactly showing their age are they now?They will stay for a few more years.
