The MD-95 Demonstrator was developed to replace early DC-9 models, then approaching 30 years old. The project was a complete overhaul the original DC-9 and reinventing it for modern transport. The aircraft is slightly longer than the DC-9-30 and is powered by new Rolls-Royce BR715 engines.
After McDonnell Douglas merged with Boeing in August 1997, most industry observers expected that the MD-95 would soon be dropped. However, the plane would go forward under a new name, 717. A total of 156 717-200 airplanes were produced from 1998 to 2006.
