My favourite airliner. The Boeing 727

The Qantas Boeing 727

My favourite airliner has always been the 727. I just like the design of it. To me it look great.
I often flew in them and there are two really neat things about them.
One is the rear entry stairs as well as the front door entry. That rear door was a good way to go on board.
The other feature was that the three engines were all at the back and not right next to your seat. They were very quiet to fly in. You left the sound behind at over mach.8.

Here are a couple of pics. Some guy just paid $248 for a plastic model of one on e-bay.
