Fly the quick& quiet jets: Douglas DC-8 or DC-9 When you have a choice, be choosy. Select a quick and quiet Douglas DC-8 or Douglas DC-9 next time you fly. The new DC-9 was designed specially for short to medium hops and smaller cities - and already it is bringing jet service to places where only propeller craft could go before. But there is nothing small about the DC-9 when it comes to comfort. The seats are big and comfortable; the headroom is tall; the legroom is long; and the quiet- ness and smoothness are some thing you've never experienced before-even in a giant jetliner. Pilots praise the Douglas DC-9, too-for its simplicity, reliability, stability, and ease of handling. The excellence of the DC-9 is a logical outgrowth of Douglas' 40 years of commercial airplane experience-including the great DC-8-the jetliner that has flown higher, faster, and farther than any other commercial jet.
