MD-80 -- Emergency Tailcone Exit Video

[parkave231]

Hello all -- I ran across this video the other day through an airliners.net thread, and thought I'd pass it along.  While I find this sort of thing interesting in general, the highlight of the DC-9 / MD-80 series has to be the tail exit.  The tail-specific part starts at 32 seconds or so -- look out below!.  Some nice shots of Jet America and the (not my personal favorite) orange Friendship '83 scheme in here too -- I'm guessing that was an Aeromexico bird temporarily used for a sales tour?
