N707DH (cn 18321/122) 727's?....Anyone? A whole fleet is stored as a result of the economy I guess. A couple have already been sold.

"Failure seeking picture": seek the a/c which misses her tail engine section ;-)

A visitor from United States posted Fri August 5, 2011:
I'll take the little White 727 with the winglets, if I can put it on lay-a-way. $20 down and the rest of my life to pay for it? Seriously, it is a sad picture.

A visitor from Brazil posted Tue August 2, 2011:
Wow! Fire sale of some second hand? Can I pick some? .. I choose two of the small white and a large yellow. How much? Do you do delivery? ... Ah, what a dream .. ;-)

A visitor from Brazil posted Thu March 31, 2011:
My goodness, what a waist ...

A visitor from - posted Wed January 19, 2011:
Yes, it's a 727 with winglets. Some 727s in service are fitted with fuel-saving winglets.

A visitor from Philippines posted Thu June 3, 2010:
Sad to see all these 727s. It's an embraer 145...

A visitor from Germany posted Wed May 26, 2010:
Yes yes, there appear to be 3 Problembraers sitting there as well... phased out early due to great success i suppose...

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed February 24, 2010:
Nice picture that brings back memories of when 727s were a very common sight, oh those smoky approaches. By the way, isn't the 'MD80' an Embraer? MD80s were not that much smaller than 727s.

A visitor from United States posted Sun February 21, 2010:
Alright, two comments on this photo

1. Is that a 727 with winglets I see? or is it just me (Topmost 727-100 white)

2. Don't forget the sad Continental MD-80 in the back (top right)

A visitor from United States posted Fri February 19, 2010:
I'm guessing the white ones are all -100s (they look so stubby compared to the -200s). Great job fitting them all in the photo!

A visitor from Ireland posted Tue February 2, 2010:
Boeing knew what they were doing building the 727 and thats coming from an airbus die hard fan

A visitor from United States posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Can you find which one has the winglets?

A visitor from - posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Nice Pic..

A visitor from Switzerland posted Wed November 11, 2009:
History in the making - the sun is setting on an icon, the 727.

A visitor from United States posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Does go to show what happens when the economy fails and when DHL pulled their US Domestic operations. Sad to see the 727's sit there. Makes me wish I could buy one before they are all gone from the skies.

A visitor from Sweden posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Good shot, although it breaks my heart to see all these beautiful birds grounded... I think I'm gonna cry myself to sleep after seeing this...

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Brings a lump to the throat, so sad to see this pioneer of aviation in such a place. Fantastically moving photo.

A visitor from Mauritius posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Nice pic i liked it =)

A visitor from United States posted Wed November 11, 2009:
I hope these get used again someday

A visitor from - posted Wed November 11, 2009:
The whole fleet was grounded as a result of DHL pulling out from the US operation. They are now contracting UPS to carry their packages to destination in the US.

A visitor from Morocco posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Sad, all these retired airplanes

A visitor from - posted Wed November 11, 2009:
MMmmmm. Good opportunity for growing airlines.

A visitor from Netherlands posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Nice shot.
However sad to know that mpst of them will never fly again.

A visitor from Czech Republic posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Sad indeed. i'm always amazed by the organisatory complexity of parking 30 planes so quite close in i guess a very short amount of time. and how to get all those crews flying them in and out...

in any case, thank your for the shot!

A visitor from - posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Really sad to see !

A visitor from Germany posted Wed November 11, 2009:
Should DHL recover from the German postal Services fangs one day as a freight line, it might very well carry one or the other beercan/sodacan made from the old 727s.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed November 11, 2009:
I'll taker the one in the top right, second one in. =) Such a shame to see so many beautiful planes sat in the sun, lets hope we see them in the air again.

A visitor from Bosnia And Herzegovina posted Wed November 11, 2009:

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed November 11, 2009:
