Boeing 727
Many airlines had 727s in their
fleets for a long period using these popular planes on short and medium range
segments. When production was terminated in 1984 a total of 1832 aircraft had
been built.
The modelplane has good flying
characteristics. Looking elegant on ground as in flight this three-engine plane
can easily be powered by a single turbine. The all-moving tailplane gives good
pitch control .
