  • This past Tuesday, a Boeing 727, N726US, was flying from Toledo to Kansas City, intended destination of Kansas City International Airport (MCI). With bad weather in the area and near zero visibility, the USA Jet crew diverted to Kansas City’s Wheeler Downtown Airport, marking the first 727 visit to MKC in many years.
    The visit of this classic also made for a treat for avgeeks, I myself being one of them. Crank up your volume and listen to the LOUD JT8D engines (with Stage III hushkits) giving their best and loudest in a full power departure out to Brownsville, Texas!

    Those JT8-D engines were crackling like they had afterburners - and with hush kits on! My favorite airliner of all time with its sleek and elegant T-tail and rear three engine configuration. Oh for a world where these classic birds were still doing most of the flying.

    Leave those beautiful loud engines alone and don't try to silence them and don't try to stop the black smoke either that's part of the beauty of it.

    Nothing else sounds like a 727! Long may they fly. The Wheeler Airport served as KC's main airport (MKC) until replaced in the early '70s by KCI. I distinctly remember flying into MKC from LAX in a TWA 720 one stormy night in 1966 and being able to look into the windows of apartment buildings in the Quality Hill neighborhood.

      That’s so awesome! I’ve looked into old pictures and some videos of airliners like Convairs and 720s and BAC111s in and out of there and I feel like this 727 really was a blast from the past in that regard. As for the sound, this perspective 100% allows you to hear the J52 engine that the JT8Ds are derived from. Listen to that crackle!
      Thank you for watching!

    I love the 727 before they added the hush kits. My friends and I would got to MHT in the early 90's before the huge runway expansions, perimeter road(now Commerce Ave.) passed about 100 or so feet past the takeoff end of RWY 35 and the Fedex 727's would always takeoff from that runway at 2200 for their flight to Memphis. We would stand there and get jet blasted and because all the engines were in close proximity to each other it was intense not to mention we were only 100' feet away from the tail of the jet as they used every inch of that RWY and really spooled the engines and held the brakes. Good times, unfortunately never to be had again☹

    Pour @gerardmorand9560
    Un bel avion silencieux en cabine , surement un des meilleurs de l'epoque avec le 707-328.
    J'ais volé à 3 reprises sur cette machine , une fois sur Lufthansa de paris à Munich , une autre fois pour aller de Bâle à Athene sur air-France et ensuite la derniere sur un 727-200 de TWA .
    Dernierement j'ais vu sur youtube qu'il etait question de remettre cet avion sur les chaines de montage de Boeing '
    J'ais pensé c'est quoi ce delire de malade , pourquoi vouloir refaire un tel appareil ?
    Cela coûterait bplus cher à repenser et produire qu'un nouvel avion .
    Remettre l'avionique et l'adapter au goût du jour , sans parler de l'amenagement cabine et la motorisation qui devra etre moins energivore que ces ancetres en carburants et plus silencieux surtout , non je pense que c'est un délire et voys qui avez volé sur cet avion qu'en pensez vous ?
