N211DB spotted in the US
wednesday around 1130 i got to work after getting out of class oa little early. i was there for the supervisors meeting we have every week. anyway, as i'm walking across the ramp i see this black 727-200 waiting on the B taxiway behind a few others for departure. i run out as far as i can on my ramp to get a better look, the regi was N211DB. now, this one was al black with the exception of the reg and #1 and #3 engine cowlings, which were a light blue. i sat there to watch the TO, she rolled pretty long and rotated about 5000 ft down the runway. according to ron, she was on her way to TNCM. if only we had someone down there to get the shot!

The 727 that Matt saw appears to have been recently repainted. there are no photo's on a.net or jp in the scheme Matt and numerous co-workers described to me, sounded cool, maybe whoever it took to SXM has to come back to LGA ? BTW it arrived about 0130 Wed morning from Bedford, Mass.

ron... when i went up to ops after seeing that 727 the amount of chatter about that plane was incredible. i've never heard everyone up there talking about the same thing at the same time before.

N211DB surfaced in LGB today (May 6) wearing new Sky One titles that she
did not have when we was spotted in LGA on April 21, both before and after
she looks "GREAT" !!!!
