Designed as a short-range twin-jet transport, the DC-9 was first flown on February 25th, 1965. Since shorter routes frequently required operation from small airports, the design focused on short-field performance. The most significant decision was to move the engines from under the wings to the tail, enabling the use of full-span flaps, reducing the possibility of foreign-object ingestion and lowering ground clearance for easier servicing at small terminals. The DC-9 spawned many variants leading to the MD-80, MD-90 and Boeing 717. In total, almost 2,500 aircraft were built over a period of more than 40 years. © Copyright 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
JC Wings' 1:200 scale DC-9 series jetliners have a higher metal content than almost any other 1:200 model. The fuselage features a solid all around seamless construction with pad-printed windows and doors, fine photo-etched antennas and glimmering jewel-cut anti-collision lenses on top and bottom. The solid metal wings feature subtle panel lines and integrated flap track fairings on the underside. The aft fuselage features all-metal tail surfaces and rear mounted engine nacelles with turbo fan details inside. The series covers the early DC-9s and the updated MD-80/90 Series with stretched fuselages and larger wings.
