They look so elegant!...

Looks like they're bringing back this particular DC-8 (N806UP)... I saw it go out on a test flight at SAT. Great shot!

Does UPS fly with them anymore???

Great picture

A visitor from Australia posted Sun July 2, 2006:
Great shot, they look like there is such good condition that it's hard to beleive there 40yr's old.

A visitor from United States posted Sat July 1, 2006:
The DC-8 is my all-time favorite jet airliner! And here, many of them are still making money hauling cargo retrofitted with new, modern turbofans. Clearly, this plane learned a thing or two from its ancestor, the DC-3.

I hope they don´t go for the axe, they look in excellent condition. T.B.

A visitor from Hong Kong posted Sat July 1, 2006:
Use A380, not DC8!

A visitor from Sweden posted Sat July 1, 2006:
Sad to see that they're phasing out such a nice plane :(.

A visitor from Slovenia posted Sat July 1, 2006:
It sad that none of the planes on the picture will fly again... They're all on death row so to speak.

A visitor from Germany posted Sat July 1, 2006:
No doubt, still the most beautiful plane in existence

A visitor from United States posted Sat July 1, 2006:
Great to see so many DC-8s in one spot!
