Boeing 7xx planes end-to-end

This is a repost of a broadcast email, so I apologise if you have already
seen it. If not, enjoy!

"Amid all the 787 roll-out hoopla, perhaps the coolest event went unnoticed.
On Saturday night, Boeing had all of the 787 airline representatives at an
event at the Museum of Flight. At 7:07 PM, an Omega Air Refueling Services
707 landed in front of the crowd (after taking off from Paine Field in
Everett). At 7:17, an AirTran 717 landed. This continued until 8:17 when
an Air France 777-300ER landed. In the end, the 717, 727, 737, 747, 757,
767, and 777 were lined up nose-to-tail on the taxiway. It is the first
time Boeing has had every 7-series airplane in the same place (not counting
the 787, which couldn't make the flight, of course). "

Interesting to see what appears to be a Concorde in the upper right.

Redesignated "Boeing 717" after the takeover.

I had the same thought - it's out of place in a Boeing lineup.

Me too. Whatever Boeing calls it, it's a DC9.

Or at least an MD-95.

Then there's the Boeing DC-3... ;^}

That is British Airways Concorde G-BOAG, donated to The Museum of
Flight in Seattle in November 2003.

The Boeings in the photo are lined up on the taxiway in front of the
Museum, located at the south end of Boeing Field.

Apropos of nothing, Boag's is a brand of beer made in Tasmania, which I'm
reliably informed, tastes the same going in as it does coming out.

That presents a mental image I don't ~even~ want to mentally image.
