On Push-Back

This is CP Air's first 727-217, delivered March 20, 1975. It was sold to Dan Air as G-BKAG in March 1982 as the airline concentrated on the Boeing 737 which was more efficient on their route structure.

The "Empress of Los Angeles" was leased to Alaska Airlines May to September of 1982. Delivered to CP Air April 8, 1975, it was sold to Dan Air (G-BKAG) February 1983. With deregulation and CP Air expanding with more routes and frequencies, the airline decided to concentrate on a 737 domestic fleet and the small two airplane 727-200 fleet was sold. This one is with Allied AIr (5N-JNR) flying for DHL Aviation Africa, although stored, at the time of uploading.
