Delta Airlines Boeing 727

The Boeing 727 is the only airliner in the U.S. with 3 engines mounted on the tail, and elsewhere in the world the only other 3 engine airliner still flying regular service is the Tupolev TU-154, operated by Air Koryo in North Korea. Unlike other 3-engine jets, the 727 has a "T" tail with the horizontal stabilizer at the top. The 727 is the only plane other than the DC-9 and MD-80 to have emergency exit stairs at the rear of the fuselage under the tail. This image was captured in 1994.
