Notes:

[1400px] A sleeping beauty parked up at the cargo terminal. Total Cargo still fly a handful of 727s as of 2020. Something to praise! The Boeing 727 is surely one of the most beautiful planes ever made. Sadly, this and other classics are quickly vanishing from the skies. Save the classics! Modern aviation is too boring.
