FedEx 727 fly-by

[BlueStreak]

I just had one of the coolest days at work today. The Kalamazoo Air Zoo at AZO had a FedEx 727 donated to them today. The aircraft was flown in from Arkansas and had a formal retirement ceremony. The best part was the fly-by's. They initially did two passes, and were setting up for landing when tower requested another one, so of course they agreed. It was great, nothing like seeing a 727 screaming down the runway, 30 feet off the ground with the gear up and doing a max climb at the end. I even heard the pilot's say "yee-haw!" over the frequency when pitching up. At least that bird had a nice final flight

Just thought I would share my day with you all.
