Okay Kapitan, I don't know exactly what your problem is with that posting seeing as it isn't the first posting mentioning the DC-8.   These are wishes anyways, no reason to bash people for that...

You might also want to do some research (take it from me; it's not very hard to do ;)) before you write a comment like yours. The DC-8-10 series (not the version I mentioned BTW!) was underpowered. Nothing cheap with those engines (JT3C), I am pretty certain on that. They are also very similar as those powering the 707 (the JT3D)! Anyways they only made 30 of those and every version after the series 10 was quite successful. Wandering around airports as a kid doesn't make you an expert in "tiny, thin, engines" either, in my books anyways.

The DC-8-73 used the very popular and reliable CFM-56 engines... And that stared before the 80's, and they don't use the same turbofans as those on the 767?

I know for a fact many people would like to see a DC-8 so it would be beneficial for you to read previous threads a little more carefully.

Just my 0.02
