Bulls "scary" plane ride

[KNOTS]

"Apparently a compressor in engine No. 3" Were they flying in a '74?

Not a 74, it's the other jet with 3 engines....

If the media built a plane . . . .it would look like a Hansa jet.

Beautiful!

I'm trying to figure out what 3rd engine they're talking about. Even on the 727 it was generally the #2 that would stall. The only place they could "see sparks" would be on the R aft of wing where you'd often see APU torching.

That said, all MC's birds are 2 engine...

What charter operator is still using 727's? What is this story from 1982?? Find it hard to believe the Chicago Bulls are flying on some old beat up 727.

There is usually one or two 727s always parked down by the Swift hangar in PHX.
