The DC-9-20 series' 50 variant was an extended version of the DC-9-40, adding 8'2" to the center fuselage, accommodating up to 125 passengers. Powered by Pratt and Whitney JT8D-15 or JT8D-17 engines (16,000 or 16,500 pounds thrust each), deliveries began in 1975 to Eastern Airlines. The DC-9-50's military version was the C-9-50 built for US armed forces. McDonnell Douglas Aircraft developed several follow-on variants of the DC-9-50, which evolved into the MD-80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, and 90. Finally, Boeing developed the Boeing 717 as the Aircraft Company acquired McDonnell Douglas.
