McDonnell Douglas DC-9-32, serial number 47394, entered service with Playboy Enterprises as N950PB in February 1969. Famously known as the "Big Bunny," the black-painted executive jet was created for Playboy founder Hugh Hefner and featured an exceptionally luxurious interior with lounge areas, a bedroom, shower, bar, and seating for approximately 36 passengers. Powered by two Pratt & Whitney JT8D engines, N950PB was later operated by Purdue Airlines and Ozark Airlines before being sold. It subsequently served Aeropostal and Aeromexico, ending its airline career in Mexico as XA-JEB. Designed as a short-range twin-jet transport, the DC-9 was first flown on February 25th, 1965. Since shorter routes frequently required operation from small airports, the design focused on short-field performance. The most significant decision was to move the engines from under the wings to the tail, enabling the use of full-span flaps, reducing the possibility of foreign-object ingestion and lowering ground clearance for easier servicing at small terminals. The DC-9 spawned many variants leading to the MD-80, MD-90 and Boeing 717. In total, almost 2,500 aircraft were built over a period of more than 40 years. © Copyright 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
