The MD80 Executive corporate is a variety of the popular MD-80 series which was itself a stretched and improved development of the McDonnell Douglas DC-9 fitted with improved, more efficient, higher bypass ratio JT8D-200 series turbofans. Launched in October 1977, the Super 80 first flew in 1979. Certification for the initial Super 80 model, the 81, was granted in July 1981. MDC renamed the DC-9-80 the MD-80 in 1983. The MD-80 designation however is a generic designation for the series and does not apply to a certain model type. The specific MD-80 models are the initial MD-81, the MD-82 with more powerful JT8D-217s, the extended range MD-83 with extra fuel and more efficient JT8D-219s, and the MD-88 (first flight August 1987) with the JT8D-219s of the MD-83 with an EFIS flightdeck and redesigned cabin interior, with other improvements.
Following the 1997 merger of Boeing and McDonnell Douglas the future of the Douglas airliners were reviewed. In December 1997 Boeing announced its decision to drop the MD-80 and MD-90 once current orders were fulfilled. |
