Anyone know if any 100s remain in service?

You can download the B.727 spreadsheet from –

http://www.airlinerlist.com/

and have a look in column I for a “C” which means current (may not be airworthy but is still currently registered). This list also give dates of when last seen in service.

It is probably not 100% correct (one person can only read that many reports/ look at only so many photos on the web) but is the best information all in one place for individual types.

There is the odd one that can land inverted….

It sat complete at Manchester Barton with the grass growing around it for a few months (I have a photo of it taken in September 2010 at Barton), before being dismantled and taken by road to Enstone sometime last year (photographed there August last year).

Not sure how long it had been at Barton, but the grass was up to the wings.

Slightly larger. Slightly faster. Two engines.

But still used for skydiving..

Perris Ca. September 2006.

you beat me with that hog.

Pure luck. I have only just sorted some of last years photos out and it is still on my computer.
