Nicely looking airplane, the 727 is. I always enjoy its look when it may appear somewhere nearby. No wonder: it is a sort of ’sister-ship’, an airplane having distinct similarities to the Tu-154, the one I flew in Russia before moving to North America. Interestingly enough, .... I recently talked to another guy, a pilot with one American company who immigrated, like myself, from Russia, who flies now 737NGs, and who used to fly Tupolevs back there as well!

We came across each other.. sure thing, - wherever else? - on the Internet, and it was a subject of those similarities in the Boeing-727′ and the Tu-154′ looks

that we had a little exchange about on a Russian aviation forum. And he told the ‘audience’ one interesting thing concerning the looks-alike of the two, and all about it might not be just a ‘pure coincidence’.

OK, I’ll try to invite the guy to participate in one of our ‘RA-85123 Fan Club‘ sittings..
