Funny thing happened as I scanned this exchange. I checked my logbook and
I've got two hops in 149484 Feb 14 and 21, 1985. PMCF from rework at NADEP Norfolk. Hey guys I checked my log book. I have 21 flights in 149482 for 41.9 hours it was a K in VA-95 during the mid 80's. Oldest bomber was 149944 in 128 early 80's. Great planes, Last night I was flying a 727-200 with the big motor conversion -271 engines on the pods full fuel and 29K cargo . Going throgh 30,000 feet we were climbing at 3000 FPM at .8 mach. I told the crew that I never flew a Military plane with that kind of performance As long as you never went over 30 degrees AOB. I don't know if the test pilots did it but I bet as clean as the 727 airframe is I bet it will go Mach 1in a dive. |
