Beautiful. There is something about the look of rear mounted engines, in line with the streamlined fuselage, that is unmatched. Engines hanging below the wings never looks as elegant to me.
***** Ya, I sat in the back to get a nice engine view. It was very loud and it got a little irritating after a couple hours. Was awesome for the takeoff though!
I've heard haters say " oh what's so great about a plane taking off" if you look closely enough there is alot more happening than just these giant birds taking off ...they don't understand what it takes to lift then off the ground.
Normally the 717 would be nose heavy because the wings are situated so close to the back, but the horizontal stabilizers are actually upside down airfoils that push the tail down so the nose goes up first and stays up. That along with the elevators is what keeps the plane from being nose heavy.
All airplanes are designed and must adhere to proper "Weight and Balance". That is why the wing is placed where it is. The elevator controls the longitudinal axis of flight, and does not compensate for the the placement of the wing.
I am impressed at the quality of the footage: hi res, stable, focused. Did you handhold the camera or did you use a tripod? If so, how did you follow the movement so smoothly? What camera do you use? Kudos from Goiânia - Goiás, Brazil.

Looks like a personal aircraft Learjet etc. The five seat config is popular with passengers pretty sure no one hates the 717 'cept for engine noise.
@ unless you’re far enough forward in which case the 717 sounds almost silent!
The 717s are great looking birds and I love their steep climbout! Awesome catch as usual!
Thanks a lot!
A fitting end to the long DC-9 line. The DC-9-95 (AKA B-717). Spirited thrust, reliable and easy to maintain.
There should've been another variant other than the -200. A 717-300 would've been an amazing sight to see.😢
Great footage of the 717, love that steep takeoff! I'm glad I got to fly on one of these in Europe, definitely a cool aircraft.
Thanks! Must be loud if you sit near the back.

‘Delta’is such a stately beautiful aircraft.

That is one very nice plane the 717. Liked.
Thank you!
Still seeing quite a few of these at STL to DTW and MSP.
I never knew there even WAS a 717,nice looking jet.
It was the final DC-9 model, the DC-9-95. After Boeing bought McDonnel-Douglas they renamed it.
Just flew on one of these. Loved every second of it!
my favorite bird, I'm a little late but still very nice catch!

@@jimlindagochnauer2610 Well I know that, I was stating how the elevators push the tail down so the nose can go up easier.
I like the 717.
Super 👍
Thank you!
A rare plane nowadays. Awesome video! :D
Thanks Mylos!
