Greetings! :D

In this two part series, we'll be looking at an airliner so successful that it nearly bankrupted its parent firm, the Douglas DC-9, having crawled its way from a proposed model with no commercial interest at the beginning of the 1960s, becoming one of the most popular short to medium range airliner models by the end of the same decade, having fought off the BAC 1-11 and even given Boeing a run for their money, and from its phenomenal rise would spawn its own successive generations of twinjets that would see work into the 1980s and 90s.
