My first ever flight was on a 727 in 1972 - from DTW to Washington DC - it was the start of my love for flying !

Awesome Dom! I wish these birds were still around...

D.B Copper used North West B 727 , and thanks 4 posting this great clip !

Simply the best plane that has ever been built... So long 727... 

Some people may think that's sound from the movie topgun, But secretly, that's what the 27 sounds like!

I love the 727! Both the 727 and the 707 are gone, but will never be forgotten

The 727 was always my favorite Boeing plane. They should have just updated it and kept building them. I hate flying on 737's they are small and noisy. I flew on a 767-400 and that was a real treat as the plain was quiet and very roomy. The power of those big engines was incredible.

Right in the feels

I'm surprised there is no copyright on this thing yet.. Thank God there's none

They are still flying by amerijet and other airlines. I also saw one taking off from dubai.

when did they retire the 707 in the US?
