As I was digging back thru my photos from the past 35-45+ years, I could not help but remember how different the various models of Boeing pax jetliners were. Each one was distinctive. The B707 was totally different from the B727 which was totally different from the B717 which was not even remotely the same as the B747 and the Boeing 737, B757, B767, etc., etc. Even the B720 was easy to tell apart from its older sibling. And of all the various Boeings, I will always rank the 727 and 747 as my most favorite types.

Agree 100%, Gary.

Perfect profile photo with great sunlight!

Great aircraft! Great airline!! Only FedEx jet I flew from all seats. 😁

I liked the 727 and the 757.

Still consider the 727-200 as one of the most elegant looking airframes ever.

Always loved flying (as a pax) on 727's - they were rockets compared to their contemporaries.

I totally agree w/ Gary - looking at the 4-engine 707/720's, the 3-engine 727's, and the 2-engine 737's and 757's - each appeared to be a totally unique airframe. But in fact Boeing was clever and 'frugal' as all these models shared the same 6-abreast cabin structure, and most shared a common cockpit/nose section. (However, we must exclude the 'MacDac' B-717!)

Looks like she’s back in the air again at KPAE

Hi. Katherine. Nope. The reg number, N282FE, is "in the air" but this 727 frame, "Dominique,' isn't. Reg N282FE is now assigned to a B767-300. (gcs)

Hey Gary!
Happy to let you know that N282FE has been reactivated as a 767F that was delivered in March 2023. Just caught it at PDX thinking it is just another freighter. But upon looking up the registration there were only pics of the 727
