Can anyone tell me the designation of the MD concept that was basically a DC-9 with wing-mounted engines? I believe there was a sketch of one in a book by Bill Gunston years ago.
I believe this was a mid-'80s concept, and not a propfan. I think it was kicked around after the MD-11 was launched. It retained the t-tail but had larger engines under the wings. But thanks for the links! Nice to finally see the plane they had to scrap when the 707 came on the scene.
Could you be thinking of the MDF-100, a proposal by McDonnell Douglas and Fokker, from the early 1980's?
