DC-9 HISTORY
 When the DC-9 program launched on April 8, 1963, The Douglas Aircraft Company essentially "Bet the Company" on the success of the DC-9. At the time of launch, they had no firm commitments or orders.

The DC-9 was devolved for a market that Douglas had seen the need for: a short-range jet capable of making multiple stops without refueling and with much lower operations cost than the piston powered aircraft currently serving the market.

The Douglas DC-9 was designed to operate efficiently, reliably and economically over short-range airline segments from 50 to 1,000 miles in length.
