    Delta Air Lines - Modern Fleetpack - McDonnell-Douglas MD-88 - Image 1

    Description

    Delta Air Lines first acquired the McDonnell-Douglas MD-88 in the 1980s, and ran them all the way through until the COVID-19 pandemic made these jets go the boneyard for an early retirement. Most MD-88s started life in the much loved "Widget" livery, through the "Interim" Ron Allen scheme, the "Colors in Motion" or "Wavy Gravy" or "Deltaflot", and then in the late 2000s, Delta would rebrand again to their current scheme, a basic Eurowhite, blue belly, and a Delta on the tail. These days the Delta livery still does look good, but (in my opinion) is getting quite tired. It's unlikely we'll see any meaningful updates soon as Delta seems committed to the brand but a new livery certainly wouldn't go amiss. Or at least some retro liveries. A retro Widget A350 would certainly look amazing, though unlikely now as Delta's centennial liveries were all just interpretations of their current design and Delta has zero retro liveries.

    Included in the pack are 5 modern MD-88 liveries:

    N900DE - The MD-88 to operate the last scheduled passenger revenue flight for Delta.


    N906DL - This MD-88 was involved in an engine failure incident in 2019 as Delta 1425, where the #1 engine failed in flight. Video was taken by a passenger which showed the engine spinner detached and grinding against the static inlet guide vanes which actually stopped the spinner from being ingested and causing a worse failure.


    N909DL - This was the first MD-88 delivered to Delta Air Lines in 1987 and flew all the way until 2015, when it was involved in a runway excursion incident in the snow at LaGuardia Airport. Nobody was killed in this incident, thankfully, but the aircraft was declared a loss.


    N967DL - Standard guise/service history.


    N969DL - Standard guise/service history.

    Love the paints. Would be a great addition to get the Delta panel textures and registration placards (example in the default Delta MD88 paint folders) instead of the current panel textures.

    Oooh I'll take a look I didn't think the defaults would have something like that. Edit: Ah I see. Yeah let me see what I can do. I feel like I got the Yoke stuff good but I couldn't find much references for the rest.

    These look great. Are these designed for the 20th anniversary edition or just the standard Maddog X edition?

    I figured as much, but it didn't reference it specifically in the description you wrote (some of the other devs did, so it had me questioning) Was holding off on downloading until I knew for certain. Thanks they look great.

    Please update the aircraft.cfg to reflect this as an MD-88, it's currently registering in VA ACARS software, etc., as an MD-82.

    By the looks of it their MD-80 fleet didn't have it, but if I'm wrong please let me know on which reg with a picture and I'd be happy to fix of course.

    N948DL, N967DL, N972DL & N911DE are a few that had the logo on the underside :) If you wouldn’t mind adding a few extra liveries to the pack!
