1:200 ScaleLengthWidthMcDonnell Douglas DC-9-32, serial number 47131, line number 214, operated by KLM Royal Dutch Airlines as PH-DNH and named \"Z�rich/City of Zurich.\" Built in the late 1960s, PH-DNH became part of KLM\'s expanding short-haul jet fleet and was used extensively from Amsterdam Schiphol on European services. The DC-9 allowed KLM to replace older turboprops while offering economical jet service on relatively short routes. After leaving KLM, the aircraft later became N941ML and subsequently XA-ADK. It remained in service for decades before being withdrawn in April 2006, giving this early DC-9 an exceptionally long operating career.

McDonnell Douglas DC-9-32 Designed as a short-range twin-jet transport, the DC-9 was first flown on February 25th, 1965. Since shorter routes frequently required operation from small airports, the design focused on short-field performance. The most significant decision was to move the engines from under the wings to the tail, enabling the use of full-span flaps, reducing the possibility of foreign-object ingestion and lowering ground clearance for easier servicing at small terminals. The DC-9 spawned many variants leading to the MD-80, MD-90 and Boeing 717. In total, almost 2,500 aircraft were built over a period of more than 40 years.
