Thanks for finding my video and pressing play!

My favourite short haul aircraft is the goofy and lovable MD80. These are being retired fast so I was keen to capture a trip on video. So, instead of taking a direct flight between Houston and Miami, I took a stopover in DFW so I could catch an MD80.

Why do I love the MD80?

1. Super quiet in First Class with the engines a long way behind you!
2. Impressive climb performance.
3. Nobody else likes them.
4. They're extremely rare in Europe.
5. They're very loud if you're outside the aircraft...

Anyway I was glad to capture this. Big thumbs up for American and their new Admirals Club in Houston. A nicely appointed club with good staff and one of the best drinks facilities I've seen in a lounge so far!
