So relaxing 8 minutes of super super loud 727 with all their black smoke very calming video thank you for posting
You're the best! Your comment means a ton to me.
My absolute favorite airliner...she looks great from any vantage point. As a kid, loved it when the 727 pulled up to the jetway for my flight. National Airlines with a black nose. The DC-8 was a close 2nd. Miss the loud airports...good times!
Rex TexasAggie And Super loud. loved it
Gimme low bypass and gimme T-tails and I'm happy.
Yes indeed, miss loud, smokies and smellies kerosen airports; and miss singulars airliners shape ! now boring airports designed like a mall and boring twin jet designed like a flying knakies with just size option ! 😒
The 727 looks great in the American Airlines livery!
This has been my favorite aircraft for a long time. My second favorite is the MD-80 series. I just love the look of planes that have rear ended engines.
My first jet. Truly a pilot's airplane. Sadly missed. My best landing at LAX... good memories.
My working life and the 727's service life coincided. The 727 was like my second car!
When I lived in Jamaica, I would occasionally have to stay in Montego Bay and the cottage where I would stay was only about half a mile from the end of the MBJ airport. The first flight to leave in the morning was one of American Airlines' last 727s. It was a flight from Montego Bay to Miami, leaving at 7AM. It was a wonderful alarm clock! I'd be laying there in bed and hear the pilots throttle up those engines and I'd say, "Good morning 27!"
Beautiful!
The best alarm clock you could ever have.
Oh man, the pops out of that TWA was magic. Thanks for a great video, the sounds of times past. All the best, Dave
The awesome sound of the P&W JT8D engines were legendary.
I really liked mexicanas old colors, those aircraft looked really elegant!
The Mike Davis Oil Company PIC really gave it some grunt. Great paint job as well.
Best machine I've ever flown!!!Miss you 727!!!
I love these planes. I used to travel and watch them a lot in the 80's. The also sound brings back happy memories. Thanks for the vids!
The 727 are the most beautiful aircraft. Thanks for sharing your video.
Thank you so much for not adding music to this video. The sounds of these jets are amazing, and remind me of time spent at the airport as a kid. I could listen to this all day. Thank you.
...thank you. Brings back lots of memories. My all time fave. Used to love sitting behind the wing to watch it grow almost twice it's width with those huge triple slotted flaps when landing.
Back then when the JT8D was extremely reliable unlike Pratts new engines 😅
Gotta love that low Bypass sound!

727. FAVORITE AIRPLANE EVER.
at 3:19: PH-MBN (crashed in 1992) appeared briefly, with Continental 727 in post-1991 livery
=> This video was filmed in 1991 or 1992
Wow, cool to see N44MD, a -100. Turned into N727VJ a Valsan VIP aircraft I worked on. It's still in "one piece" minus alot of parts parked in Kingman AZ
The 60's gave us some wonderful Tri-Jets.
Both the 727 and TU-154 were simply beautiful, and don't you just love those sounds? I feel sorry for our children, who will never get to experience the feeling of being pushed back into their seats, while they feel the vibrations and hear the loud roar of 3 powerful engines behind them.
Not to mention the smoke the smell And the Earth shattering jet engines love it
Was the best looking jet on the apron.
I miss when 727s where everywhere and those JT8Ds roared!
I could be one one of those. Flew in many 727. Love the vid.
Hey Ryan! I love these videos and I enjoy watching them at any time, I love the retro airplanes and liveries, very nostalgic and good to see.
By the way, the first Mexicana 727 has the older livery from the 70's and the later one has one of the liveries Mexicana had on the early 90's.
Keep it up!
Miss the 727. I know at one time, Delta was running 727's between LAX and SLC and Continental was running them between LAX and IAH. Almost had the chance to fly on both of them. However, one was a red eye, which I am not to fond of, and the other would have made me late to the last family reunion I had before my dad passed away. Family does come first to me.
2023, still love to see these classic birds. They are legacy but beautiful.
My favorite passenger jet liner since I was 7 years old! It was my dream to be a pilot flying a United 727-200 under the orange, red, blue and United Tulip.
Love the Mexicana Boeing 727-200 at 1:15
These beautiful birds were de rigueur when I was growing up in Australia. They first entered our skies in 1964 and I flew on a few with Ansett and TAA as a kid.
Have to say, they are my favourite all-time jetliner. They look so graceful. Would be nice to see Boeing rejig some of these airframes with modern engines and winglets....and perhaps a glass cockpit. They certainly were a majestic and stylish looking machine.
There's no market for it, unfortunately. The 757 is its successor for this class of aircraft.
God, I miss flying TWA, and seeing United's old livery. I fucking love the sound the engines make at takeoff.
spent 34 years working on this type of plane and i loved every minute of it. man i miss them. they were the best type of plane Boeing ever built except for maybe the 747-300
Best plane Boeing ever made!
So agreed!
Thanks for the ride in the time machine. Some of my most enjoyable flights were in a 727.
Boeing needs to bring back the 727 forthwith.
As a college student in the 70's I got bumped from a NW flight from MPLS to Spokane on Northwest Orient when another airline was on strike.
3 days later NWO put me on a 727 milk run: MPLS to Fargo to Bismark to Billings to Bozeman to Butte to Spokane. Unbelievable. But the 727 could do it.
What a joy---all those take offs and landings in a 727! I loved it. We hardly ever leveled off. Like a string of touch-and-go's. For me---in those days---I enjoyed this flight more than I would have a non-stop in a DC-10.
Yikes! Since the late70's as a kid we always but always had nonstop flights from A to Z. Even as a mid 40's guy this is the must for airplane travel. We have never flied on a non nonstop flight.
God...I can’t even explain to you how much I miss the sound of those old jt8d engines. Back in the 80s-90s, you’d walk out onto the field or down the jetway and the entire place would be filled with that beautiful whirring sound. That’s a magic in aviation that slowly disappeared throughout the early 2000s. There are four models I miss above all others. The 727, the smaller dc-9s, the dc-10 and the 737-200adv. I used to fly out of Boston on northwest airlines all the time on those aircraft and they were beautiful...
Just received my 727 TWA model kit. Can't wait to build it
GORGEOUS. This beauty makes me emotional
Wow Look at all those DC 10s towards the end of the TWA TAKE OF,, AHH THE GOOD OLE DAY S :)
Bin einige male mit der Boeing 727 geflogen. Sie startet wie ein Formel 1 Rennwagen in hebt wie ein Kampfjet ab. Die stark angewinkelten und weit nach hinten gesetzten Tragflächen mit dem T Leitwerk geben dieser Maschine eine einzigartige schöne Silhouette. Die 727 ist für mich immer noch das schönste Passagierflugzeug der Welt. Auch von der Konstruktion her sollte die Boeing Vorteile gegenüber den klassischen Maschinen mit 2 Triebwerken unter den Flügeln haben. Das Fahrwerk braucht nicht so hochbeinig gebaut werden. Insofern ist es auch konstruktiv einfacher dieses zu fertigen. Außerdem haben die am hinteren Rumpf befestigten Triebwerke viel mehr Befestigungsfläche wie bei einer Anbringung am Flügel. Die Kräfte die ein Tragwerk aushalten muss entfallen bei der 727. Das Höhenleitwerk ist durch seine Bauform nicht den Verwirbelungen der Tragflächen ausgesetzt. Auch das aus Konstruktionsgründen weit nach hinten versetzte Hauptfahrwerk lässt keine Bodenberührung bei dem Abheben der Maschine zu. Extreme Winkel sind deshalb völlig Problemlos. Weiterhin ist der Treibstoff in den Tragflächen und in der Rumpfunterseite von den Triebwerken weiter entfernt. Grundsätzlich sind auch die Turbinen nicht so in Bodennähe angebracht was als Sicherheitsvorteil zu werten ist. Wegen der stark gefeilten Flügelform kann auch der Luftwiderstand nicht so groß sein wie das bei den anderen Maschinen der Fall ist. Das hintere Höhenruder kann insgesamt aus dem Rumpfhinterteil in der Nähe der Motorenaufhängung bewegt werden. Ebenfalls kann das Seitenleitwerk damit Bestandteil der Versteifung des hinteren Rumpfes werden. Bei anderen Konstruktionen wird das Seitenleitwerk immer auf dem Rumpf oben mit Bolzen befestigt was auch als
instabil angesehen werden kann. Die Vorflügel sind bei der 727 durchgängig an dem Tragwerk nutzbar. Außerdem wird bei der 727 der Abgasstrahl nicht unter den Tragflächen geführt. Die mit Überschall ausströmende Luft vermindert den Auftrieb weil sich der Überdruck unter den Flügeln zu einem Teil wieder abströmt. Wenn die Boeing 777 einer Konstruktion wie das bei der 727 der Fall ist entfällt natürlich die komplexe Fertigung am Heck weil kein drittes Triebwerk verbaut werden müsste. Die großflächige Anbringung der Motoren kann in Tropfenform erfolgen. Die Strömungseigenschaften solcher Bauweise sind erheblich besser wie das bei den Tragflächengondeln der Fall ist. Auch arbeiten die Rückstosskräfte der Triebwerke nicht an dem Höhenleitwerk wie bei der 777 welches bis zum deutlich sichtbaren flattern führt. Letztendlich wäre sogar der runde Rumpf (oft auch als Röhre bezeichnet) länger. Das Volumen vergrößert sich allein deswegen Weil man nicht bereits kurz hinter dem Tragwerk mit der Abflachung nach oben beginnen Muss um eine Bodenberührung auszuschließen. Der Rumpf könnte viel weiter hinten einfach spitz zulaufen. Die Strömungseigenschaften würden auch sehr viel besser. Hinzu kommt die bessere Gleiteigenschaft bei Notwasserungen. Kommt eines der beiden Triebwerke zuerst mit dem Wasser in Berührung reist es das Flugzeug auseinander. Nur wenn beide Triebwerke zugleich mit identischer Fläche und dann auch noch ohne Wellengang (wie das im Hudson River der Fall war) kann bei Gondeln eine Notlandung auf dem Wasser gelingen Auch auf Wüstensand könnte so ein Flugzeug besser auf dem Rumpf gleiten. Bei einer Anbringung am Rumpf stellt sich dieses Problem erst gar nicht. Wenn beide Triebwerke am hinteren Rumpf so angebracht werden, dass sich die ausströmende Luft nicht parallel zur Flugrichtung beweget sondern versetzt (wie ein V nach hinten) dann würde beim Ausfall eines der beiden Motore das Flugzeug selbst stabilisieren. Zudem würde der Wirkungsgrad besser sein weil jeder Abgasstrom sein eigenes Luftpolster hat. (ähnlich wie bei dem Bodeneffekt nur eben nicht so stark). Es gibt aber noch weitere Vorteile einer Anbringung der Tourbienen am Heck. Der Schub am Heck ist für das Flugverhalten immer von Vorteil. Die Notrutschen sind kürzer und damit leichter. Toiletten und Wickelräume können auf angehobener Ebene den Heckbereich voll nutzen. Würde gerne mal eine 777 in der Bauform der Boeing 727 sehen. Bei unverändertem Tankvolumen müssten die 777 800-1000km mehr Rechweite aufweisen und das bei größerem Innenraum.
But they were susceptible to deep stall situations.
One of the most beautiful planes that ever flew. I loved watching 727s take off and land but I loved riding in them best of all.
The Boeing 727, my first all time favorite airplane plus nice & noisy as airplanes should be. Those were the days. 😊
727, forever!!! Thanks!!!
i loved the TWA ones,, coming in here in Detroit,, their 727 engines sounded the most crisp and powerful of all the Airline Carriers back then
Great footage. Man, I miss those 727s, I was still young when they were being retired, but I remember seeing some takeoff at various airports and they were LOUD. It doesn't sound too loud in this video, but I assume that's due to technology of the time. Those old cameras couldn't capture the eardrum bursting sound of a 727 starting it's takeoff roll. Thanks Ryan!
About the loudness, no kidding! It sounds like a Saturn rocket lifting off to space.
Plane spotting in the day... With a real camera! Lol. Fun to see all those defunct carriers and liveries.
Back in the 70s, my dad flew 727's, on every landing approach, he would crank The James Gang song "Walk Away".....rock-'n'-roll pilot of the 70s
My first plane ride by myself was a Pan Am 727. The inflight dinner was a huge helping of chicken and mashed potatoes with gravy, on a real plate with silverware. I was 8.
Man! Those old 727's were noisy as F even while landing. And wow! All the DC10 there too! I got to fly on both of those in the 80's as a kid, my fave is still the DC10 I used to highly dislike it but it grew onto me. Very cool footage.
2:00 Holy crap! Is that a USDOT 727 there? I mean, look at the tail logo there.
Holy moly! I was gonna' say, two private 727's there at 5:55 The later N44MD belonged to www.denverpost.com/2007/09/06/legendary-lady-in-denver-history/ Really fantastic footage here! I wish I could fave it 100 times ;)
Amazing airplane
My first passenger flight on the 727 was in April of 1985. On Northwest Orient (before changing to just Northwest) from KDTW to KTPA
Woulbe awesome to hear your stories
Mine was August 1973, LaGuardia - Washington National on the Eastern Airlines Shuttle.
The 1st of 38 passenger flights I would make on both the -100 & -200 series 727,
The greatest airliner ever made.
Cool, this was post the Delta-Western merger, I don’t think Delta ever bought any 727’s, they just absorbed the many 727-200’s Western flew. The only 727-100 I ever flew was owned by Braniff who flew both versions.
Great video, thanks for posting. I was fortunate enough to fly on 727's many times during the 1980's. They were suprisingly quiet inside, perhaps due to the rear mount engines.
Fantastic Planes, same fuselage as 737
Omg American looks awesome
My absolute FAVORITE aircraft!
Awesome upload Ryan. Thank you. ROCK ON!!!!!
I love the sound those beautiful birds made back then
Go tri-jetz!!!
Used to love seeing all the great colors of the Braniff International 727’s at DFW and in San Antonio
They are some great aircraft. Very nice..
I was a Flight Attendant for American Trans Air. We were able to bid our schedules by aircraft type. I stayed on the 727 for two solid years, until they started to be phased out. IMO, this was the best airplane ever. My shortest flight ever taken(as a passenger), was on a Delta 727-200 from West Palm Beach to Ft. Lauderdale in 1987. The flight time was 12 minutes, LOL
Yeah I heard of a shuttle that the wheels are still spinning from the take off when they land its that close.
I went from Indianapolis to Cincinnati and it didn’t take long but the funny thing is that I could have caught the same plane in Cincinnati which is a lot closer to me but by driving 100 miles to indi I saved 74$ on each fare I haven’t figured that one out yet
I love Boing 727 , power on the air 💙💚💛💜❤💞
Delta and TWA were my two faves. Loved the "Delta Mask"
I remember once flying in a TWA 727 right in the back seat next to the engines. :D
UGH! a really bad seat there.
albear972 why?
those Loud n Juicy JT8Ds
Looks like an official FAA plane at 2:00?
My first flight that I remember was on a Delta 727 from PDX to SFO in 1994. I never flew on another one. I remember the declining years of the model when UPS used to regularly fly one into KSLE. Wish I had taken pictures!
Thanks for posting!
Once upon a time, the reliable Boeing 727.
Always liked the Braniff 727's colors
Nice vid. Still love the 727 the most. Say, uh, which airline has the stripes going down the side? Haha. They all did.
727-256 series = Mexicana airlines operated 42 planes 727-200 from 1972 to 1994 flying them day and night like no other plane in Mexico is an unforgettable legend
Thank you Mr. Bomar! another great video. The mighty is almost completely gone now. Sad...
Lovely.. That mexicana 727-200 (from 1:15) is similar to the one that can be seen in the music video for Pale shelter by Tears for fears :), Incidentally I believe that was shot at LAX too, which within the song would be at about 1:21, if one cares to look.

Yep, filmed from the West Imperial Terminal, where Laker Airways was situated.
Thanks for posting this-
Beautiful
I guess landing in the touchdown zone is a more recent development! It’s fun to watch them float their landings while they try to roll ‘em on. 😂
So beautiful 😍
NICE!!! Love the 727!
Thanks for the info!
The good old days of Mexicana de Aviación
One simple question... Where´s these wonderful aircrafts today? (2015). Very nice model B727. Thanks for sharing. Gilberto Mendes,
Uh, that can of soda you're drinking from...
2:00 my grandfather had a lot of time in the FAA 727
Airliners back then made sure their presence was well known!
Awesome video Mann! Thanks for posting unfortunately I never got to ride in one of these but I can imagine it was amazing.im curious as to what year this was taken in because I see delta airlines dc10 in the background and I never saw one in real life so I'm hoping you'd be able to tell me.
This is an awesome video! What year was this video filmed? I am curious because I don't think any 727s are used for passenger service in the U.S. unless I am wrong. I never had the opportunity to fly on these jetliners when they were in service. If I did, I was too young to remember it. Great job once again!
Awesome !
My memory of the 727 is how narrow the rear stairs was.
+Na Ardri= after exactly 727 more brightness and legend today all are not ugly unsightly 3jets in the world are too beautiful 727- tupolev154series 62 ilyushin no other and also very fast but today
Belleza el modelo 727 -100 y 727-200
The first Mexicana (@1:37) was the old original livery. The second Mexicana (@4:41) was actually the newer livery.
Was that a 747SP flying in the background at 0:58?
I flew a corporate 727-100 for a short time so what can I say. Other than nice, and thanks.
Boeing should make a next generation version of the 727, that basically looks the same but with quieter engines.
The planned 727-300, ended up evolving into the 757.
great video of best plane ever..what year?
my first 727 was on eastern philly to orlando
Mexicana airlines was the FOREIGN airline that most landed in LAX
The airport is so much different now
nice video :) island greetings!
I love the 727. wish i could be there.
787-9 is now my favorite aircraft please try to shoot more videos of those jets
Great video! You said that the second private 727 was a -100. I think it's a -200, because the intake for the upper engine is circular, not oval-ish.
