The 727 was the hot rod of the Boeing family, and along with the 747 stands as one of the most beautiful aeroplanes ever designed. They were loud, and just had this way of etching the sky with their black smoky exhaust trails...Planes manufactured today have no character...
I sorely miss the 727. They were sort of the sports cars of commercial airlines. From the early 1970s to the mid 1980s I commuted between SLC and LA. The flights were almost always on a 727. Seas in the front of the cabin were great. Very little noise. And I miss all the cheap domestic bottle-capped champagne Western Airlines offered to us on those flights. It was the only way to fly.
I worked on a field where we had a retrofitted 727-100. That was in '89 and even back then it had winglets and the JT8-D-200 engines on the outsides. The middle engine was unable to be upgraded due to the confined, unchangeable S-duct and tail geometry. The pilot told me they run the center engine for power at takeoff and leave it at idle after reaching cruise altitude while the more fuel efficient outer engines carry it the rest of the way.
Love these 727s. Have many flights on them and not a single problem with any of them. Wish that they were still flying. I do like the 727-100s the best. Thanks for not adding music.
I just LOVE that T-tail with the 3 aft engines -- beautiful! And it always amazes me how a small those push-back tugs can move such a giant aircraft when they're so small!
That was delicious..... seeing a 727 again was wonderful. I only flew on one once when I went to the Paris air show in the early 70's Air France, the return flight was grounded and I came back on a caravelle... happy days :-) thanks for that, another to add to my favourites collection
Nice capture, so unusual to see such an aircraft. This very 727 is still the Presidential aircraft, it was in Paris 24th March 2020. First flight was on 30th October 1981, making her 38 years young.
Very NICE video clip and I enjoyed this a lot !! Above all Good quality picture and the Boeing 727 is a Classic Airplane 2 and one of my favorite Classic Airplanes !! Thanks for the video clip and may GOD Bless you !! 😊😊
Back in the late sixties to the late seventies, if you at smaller more regional airport in the US, all you saw were 727, 737 and DC-9s pretty much. Not much else.
Visited here mid-70's. What a beautiful island. Had to change planes in Lisbon due to the rather short runway. Lots of cockpit visits over and back when that was allowed. The pilot said it would be OK to sit up front when we landed in Boston. This was an opportunity to sit in the jump seat from 40,000' to down to the gate! What a thrill for a private pilot!!!! NH
To this day I miss the 727s. They were spectacular to watch as they leave trails of smoke behind when they take off. Oh, and they didn't whisper at all when they take off. Same with the Concordes and the BAC 1-11s. Today's aircraft though are so quiet that it's a yawn to watch them.
Such a beauty, such grace, wow that reminds me when I used to fly with this plane back in the late 70s from Santa Cruz to Cochabamba (Bolivia) with one of the longest B727 operators LAB (Lloyd Aéreo Boliviano). Thanks for sharing Samuel, muito obrigado.
Love the B727. I got to fly in a United B727 just the one time. I had a window seat just behind the wing, and until I sat down and looked out the window I thought I was on a B737!

In the early sixties, was the kid at runway end at Essendon (Melb) when the first ANSETT-ANA & TAA Boeing 727-100s arrived withing five minute due The Fed Airlines Rationalisation Act. On this vid noted the FAT TYRES on the main gear, and wondered if they came from Aussie. {they were required due SIWL problems at Aussie aerodromes. -SILWL = single isolatated wheel load - esp on soft runways/taxi etc}
A very close friend of mine - a pilot for United Airlines - qualified very young as a captain on the 727-200. It was near the end of their service and just as the airline began to phase them out. None of his young contemporaries and very few of the senior pilots at United wanted anything to do with the old, analog, low-tech airplane. The more modern, computerized 737, 757 and 777 were all the rage and everybody wanted to fly those instead. The 727 fleet was consolidated at KSFO and made the "reserve fleet" - meaning they were assigned to fill in schedule gaps or stand-in for other aircraft that were not in position for their scheduled flight or were pulled due to mechanical problems. They flew the 727 all over the country - often at a moment's notice and usually empty to get into position where they were needed. My buddy's stories of flying the 727 - a completely manually-flown aircraft with only the most basic auto pilot - were enthralling to me, a mere private pilot. He described the 727 as an airplane he could fly to Hell and back in one piece. It's barn-door flaps enabled it to land and take-off at small-town airports with short runways, yet the airplane's capacity could easily stand-in for a 757. With no on-board flight control computers, when the pilots pulled back on the yoke, they could feel the cables straining and the hydraulic boosters kick in. It was a genuine "seat-of-the-pants" aircraft. That was some years back and now my buddy is a 777 captain on the KSFO to Japan, Korea and Singapore routes. He describes the 777 as a flying video game. Oh how things have changed.
Looks like he went full flaps only after the final turn. This could also explain why the nose was so much up during the downwind and turn segment of this beautiful flown appoach.
Wow! that 'Climb Profile' on Departure! holy shit! didn't think these things had 'all that much power' ( older JT8-D type engines...low bypass ratio, turbo jets...smoke, and all that...) but that thing did a pretty short takeoff roll ( ton's 'O headwind apparently ) and got outta there like a 'Homesick Angel.
Back in 1969 used load B727 for Continental Air Micronesia out of Honolulu. The 2 aircraft had an upper cargo deck instead of 1st class. When I became an FAA Flight Dispatcher I dispatched the one that crashed on Yap. The aircraft made a low approach and clipped the small cliff just before touching down. The aircraft spun on the runway in to the trees on the side of the runway and burned. Everyone got out safely. 6 months later I was on a Dc10 doing a jumpseat doing an equipment qualification with the Captain of that flight.
Very skillful landing. I was once many moons ago, an FE on 727, and what an awesome aircraft it was. That sucker took a little over 3000 feet to rotate. Awesome.
That was spectacular, thank you! This plane reminds me of my childhood, I really miss it along with the 732... >>>For those rare aircraft it would be nice to keep the complete spool up sound during take off instead of editing it so close
Ex TAP CS-TBY. I was the captain on the delivery flight to Mogadishu, Somalia, already in Somali Airlines livery. It was shot up on the day we arrived there. One of the security guards was killed. A mortar was fired at it that night but missed and hit part of a hangar. When we left, 3 days later, I thought it would never fly again. I believe they did some basic repairs and flew it to Yemen. I then saw it in LIsbon where it came for some updates. Bought by an American casino owner (that's what I heard) who had the winglets and P&W 217s fitted. Later still it was "offered" to the president of Burkina Faso...
I remember a trip to Washington in 1972, spending a few days at what was then National airport where every other aircraft taking off or landing was a 727. What a great looking machine, Saw this particular 727 at Lasham in the UK in August 2017. There are also two active B727's based at Lasham belonging to Oil Spill Response
Must have flown in one a hundred times on PSA. Best feature were the rear stairs that made it easy to jump from the plane in flight with a parachute and a TON of money.
I went to Madeira on a 727 long ago. All the locals on the flight gave the pilot a round of applause for getting us down - it is a notoriously difficult airport.

Ik weet niet wat het is, maar dit vliegtuig heeft iets extra's! Wat een elegant toestel!!! Prachtig!!!
Fantastic take off performance from an old aircraft. This aircraft looks to have been re-engined.
Wonderful flying. That aircraft should come back with modern fans.....unbeatable.☺️

Excellent airplane.
Never saw a 727 with winglets! Nice video!
we can appreciate the great qualities of the Pilot or Pilots! very impressive!
It climbs so fast after take off, very impressive!
As per the Title was the President of Burkina Faso. So, the Plane was not full of People and Lugage. Even the runaway was very short
Its a Super27-1
omg - that noise as she spools up - beautiful x
The tail, nose, wingspan, the noise... all the 727 its beautiful
Gotta love that black smoke!
...It was the Workhorse Of Many Airlines....My Dad worked for Lufthansa Back then ...When Flying was Nicer....
And deadlier.

Superb video. Great aircraft and location.
Beautiful jet!
The 727 and 747 are among the best looking jet airliners of all times.
I'd pitch the 777 in there as well
The 747 for sure. My dad used to fly the Vickers VC-10 and the De Haviland Comet and they are classy beasts. Plus Concorde!
I would include the DC-10 as well

Flew in every 72 seat during my career. This and the 75 were hard to beat.
beautiful
when the pilot is good enough to wheelie the plane down the runway :)
The BAC Super VC10 is the most beautiful aircraft ever designed...
Nice landing, held the nose up a long time!! Beautiful plane.... good rate of climb on departure, though, probably only a few passengers
Interesting to see winglets retrofitted to an older plane.
Your soo lucky to get to see a 727! I wish I could have been there to see it...

at the moment of writing this comment, the aircraft is 39 years and 2 months old and is still in use
Interesting. Thank you.
wow, its almost as old as me!! just as well it was an easy landing!!
It's not a regular airline's plane: low mileage, good maintenance, good crew. Why wouldn't serve long?
Who is it in service with now, still Burkina Faso?
