N608AT has its thrust reversers open as it decelerates on 13L at Dallas Love Field. There are actually two versions of the 717-200, the Basis Gross Weight version and the High Gross Weight version that has reduced underfloor cargo capacity to make room for auxiliary fuel tanks. It comes out to about a 10,000 lb difference at MTOW- the Basic Gross Weight version has a fuel capacity of 3673 gal/13903L and the High Gross Weight version has a fuel capacity of 4403gal/16665L). It adds about 600nm in range. The Basic Version uses the Rolls-Royce/BMW BR715A1-30 engine which offers up to 18500 lbs thrust at takeoff. the High Gross Weight Version uses the BR715C1-30 which offers 21000 lbs of thrust- but they’re the same engine, the difference between the A1-30 and C1-30 engines is a changed plug in the FADEC controller and some software changes. #avgeek #aviation #aircraft #planeporn #KDAL #DAL #DallasLoveField #airport #planespotting #instaplane #instagramaviation #Avgeekery #McDonnellDouglas #MD95 #Boeing #717 #Delta #N608AT #splendid_transport #instaaviation #aviationlovers #aviationphotography #flight #AvgeekSchoolofKnowledge (at Dallas Love Field (DAL))
