Origin and history
The McDonnell Douglas MD-83 is part of the MD-80 family of aircraft, which was developed as a successor to the successful DC-9. The MD-83 features longer range and higher capacity compared to its predecessors. Swiss International Air Lines, the successor to the legendary Swissair, operated these aircraft on its medium-haul routes.
Curiosity
The MD-83 is known for its distinctive design with engines located at the rear of the fuselage. This arrangement gives the aircraft a unique appearance and also contributes to lower noise levels in the passenger cabin. Swiss International Air Lines used these planes mainly for flights to popular European destinations.
