N518DA (cn 21469/1398) With the end of its flying career just a few weeks down the road, Delta's ship 518 is being readied for its final ferry flight to the desert for scrapping. Its a pretty cool feeling to stand in the 'office' of this old workhorse knowing how many trips it has made around the country...only to be sent to the desert for scrapping. |

N518DA (cn 21469/1398) The classic 727 wing in flight! We're making a slight left turn at 15,000 - 20,000ft as we head toward Birmingham. Notice the inboard aileron slightly "up": the pilot is coming out of a left bank by dropping some lift from the right wing. (the view from seat 28F, flt 1711 ATL-BHM) Update: aircraft retired 1/28/03 & stored. |

N518DA (cn 21469/1398) On final approach to runway 26 at ABQ (Albuquerque - International Sunport) ....45 minutes late. Thanks to a faulty leading edge slat actuator on the left wing back at DFW, I had a 5 minute layover here. |
