This obscure 727-100 has been rotting for years in this airfield located in Laurinburg North Carolina, about 2 hours from Charlotte, where some airliners come for scrapping. If you have any info on this airplane please share in the comments section

peternygard727-100.jpg1007 viewsBy far the nicest color scheme I've ever seen on a 727. Making it even more special is that it's a 727-100, which is a shorter variant of the 727-200. This 727 additionally sports winglets and a Super 727 conversion, which is a huge engine upgrade (the engines look like MD80 engines, which are much bigger than typical 727 engines), in addition to the beautiful BOEING sign in the background

This photo, taken 22 years ago was on cheap Ektachrome slide film, developed at the local drug store. I was able to restore it to its full glory after massive color correction, scratch and dirt removal- lots of work but well worth it. This beautiful Aer Lingus 747-100 just touched down on runway 31R and went long, to the delight of this photographer (most airplanes turn off earlier and this type of photo is not possible)

JETBLUE_A320_LAX_0210jpavnet.jpg986 viewsThis Jetblue A320, featuring a 10th anniversary livery has special meaning to me. I flew with Jetblue on February 11, 2000, before the airline began operations. On the flights from JFK-BUF, BUF-JFK, JFK-FLL, FLL-JFK were Jetblue's founder and CEO at the time, David Neeleman, David Barger (the current CEO), in addition to other lucky folks who got to fly on Jetblue that day before the company began operations that evening (JFK-FLL). The lights you see in the sky are a departing airplane on runway 25R
