    N88ZL Close to the Scrappers at OPF?

    Kenny is not going to like this thread...

    Such a shame to lose another classic bird. Never got a shot of her myself but I know Kenny & Senga stalked this bird for a while.

    taxied by her at PHLly one late night when I was flying the 727 for le Champion,she is a beauty
    The beehive hummm of the JT9D and GE CF680C2,the thunder of the JT8D-17,the rumble of the PW1830 and the high ,thin whine of the PW 545A are all music to my ears!

    Andy's right. I don't much like this thread at all. It would be a crime if she was scrapped. An absolute crime.

    Let's all pray that she isn't scrapped for Kenny's sake (as if we don't all think scrapping a beautiful old 707 is a capital offense).

    is there something special about this 707, or is it just that is IS a 707?

    Travolta SHOULD indeed buy her for either parts or as a backup bird for the wife to go shopping
