ILM out of Brownsville, TX and Capital Air Cargo both still have 727 PFEs.

No more info than that - an old -141 buddy ran into one of our old engineers and he got that info. Good luck!

Will be parked within a month or two. Plus all the 727 flying is actually DHL CVG stuff.

IFL Group in Pontiac, MI has like 3 727-200s and 2 727-100s.
