TWA B727, Pilots Last Flight before Retirement, SFO-STL
Interesting piece, chances are nill we will ever see this type of this type with a US carrier ... again. (www.youtube.com) 更多...The 727 was always my favorite jet when I was a child. Back then, Electras were still flying, too. Aviation has changed a lot in some areas, and not so much in others.
I live and work near BWI and watch 72s quite often. FEDEX flys DC-10s into BWI.
Great, I have a lot of time in them both as a Plummer and Pilot. Was in Captain Up Grade in Houston when Lorenzo shut down Continental. The best times were when I flew Air Mic for 3 +years. We flew special 727-100s with bigger engines,nose wheel brakes and other special modifications. That brought back great memories.
Were the mods for short field performance?
If you want it, lemme know, it's so much fun to fly, I always felt I got the most for my money with this one, it cost me $45.00 four years ago, I've never regretted a single penny for that aircraft, it's my all-time favourite (the LD 767 is a very close 2nd).
