The McDonnell Douglas MD-80 is a family of single-aisle airliners, conceived and developed by McDonnell Douglas in the 1970s, building upon the earlier DC-9 model. The objective was to create an expanded version of the successful DC-9, achieved by elongating the fuselage and incorporating root and tip sections to the wings, thereby enhancing them by nearly 30%. The twin Pratt & Whitney JT8D turbofan powerplants were positioned on the rear fuselage. The MD-80 was optimized for frequent but short-haul operations, offering various seating arrangements to accommodate 130-172 passengers, depending on the chosen configuration.
Red Box is delighted to provide an extensive range of ground power equipment for this aircraft, including tugs, ground power units, start power units, aviation tools, and more, meticulously tailored to meet the specific requirements of McDonnell Douglas MD-80 aircraft.
