Delta Flight 2406
December 19, 2017
ATL-VPS
MD-88 Registration N908DL
Seat 24A
Amazing takeoff in Atlanta. One of the best takeoff sounds I recorded in all of my videos. We had the brakes on and the pilot partially spooled the engines, then once we started rolling he spooled them more giving the buzz-saw sound, but then a few seconds later even more thrust.
Nighttime video though so not the best quality, but still good. Recorded with Galaxy S8
Edit- didn't realize this would be my last md88 flight :( now that delta retired them earlier than expected due to covid-19, I no longer have the chance to fly on this magnificent plane. The 717 just doesn't feel or sound the same.
