I was wondering, does anyone know who is the manufacturer of the overhead bin extensions on DL's MD-88s and MD-90s? I know the 757 bin extensions were made by Heath Tecna (model ATIX-2A), and I believe that Heath Tecna is also the supplier for DL's new 763ER interiors (the NuLook PBI package I believe).
Looking at Heath Tecna's website, there doesn't appear to be any bin extension package for the MD-80 and MD-90 that resembles the bin extensions on DL's aircraft. Does anyone know who made DL's MD-88/MD-90 bin extensions?

Quoting Sinlock (Reply 2): It's safe to say that every ramp worker who's ever worked a MD-80 cringed at the thought of the Bin being any longer! :P
The bin extensions on the MD-88s were installed in the early 2000s. The MD-90 bin extensions are more recent; DL started modding them when they acquired the second-hand aircraft.
