707, 717, 727, 737, 747, 757, 767, 777
In the end, the 717, 727, 737, 747, 757, 767, and 777 were lined up nose-to-tail on the taxiway. It is the first time Boeing has had every 7-series airplane in the same place (not counting the 787, which couldn't make the flight, of course). (www.flickr.com) Mais...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
I am a retired NWA Pilot and I flew all these airplanes except the B717 (really a Douglas airplane so it doesn't count) or the B777 (retired before that came along) plus the B720 (better known as the Renton Rocket). The Seattle Museum of Flight better known as the Boeing Museum of Flight also has the prototype B727 at its Everett restoration facility along with the world's first jetliner, the Comet.
Apparently this picture is over 3 years old (check the date at the top of the page), which explains why the 787 couldn't make it :)
It's too bad the 787 wasn't in this pic! I've been on all these but the 707.
That is wicked awesome!!!!
Great picture post! I miss flying on the 727. If I recall correctly, wasn't it the DC-9 that was introduced as being the all new "whisper jet" model? I do remember watching 727's flying into BWI and they sure didn't "whisper", more like a roar.
Makes an awesome desktop background
Very cool, thanks for posting.
