United With A Mainliner

Boeing 727 Prototype, Everett, Washington, USA
This is the tail of the first Boeing 727 ever built.  Currently at the Museum of Flight Restoration Center, this prototype ultimately was delivered to United Airlines and carried around 3 million passengers and logged over 48,000 landings.

Beyond the historic nature of this bird, the tail is just so cool to look at in its vintage color scheme.  Being united with this Mainliner really took us back to the Golden Age of Aviation.
