[FullHD] M-STAR Starling Boeing 727-200 landing & takeoff at Geneva/GVA/LSGG

[@seandonnelly8547]

Beautiful and fast aircraft. Average cruise was Mach 0.85 (Today's aircraft cruise at Mach 0.80) and this design is over 50 years old. Noisy and a gas guzzler but what a a beauty.

[@apolloskyfacer5842]

One of the world's most beautiful aircraft !

[@Doyle-Nutbush]

That was one of the best flare and landings I've witnessed on a 727. It's also the best paint scheme's I've ever seen.

[@Repented008]

I agree, superb for a tail-heavy bird like her.

[@TheUtuber999]

I thought it was a bit protracted.

[@DK-lc8gf]

727 still looking as sleek as ever, thanks for sharing

[@georgemallory797]

Gorgeous paint scheme. Prettiest one I have ever seen and I have seen a ton in the last 52 years.

[@midimancb1]

The eyebrow effect changes the appearance of this beautiful bird. Best looking 727 ever GO M-Star

[@Tassiewatch]

Great capture of the 727! for history - Jan 2024 - "After 42 years of service, Starling Group is retiring its Boeing 727-200, M-STAR. The Isle-of-Mann registered business jet departed on its last journey on Wednesday afternoon, flying from Tekirdağ Çorlu Airport (TEQ) in Turkey to London Stansted Airport (STN) before heading to Cotswold Airport (GBA) for storage"

[@azizc64]

one of the most beautiful aircraft designs if not the most!!

[@N622DC]

Magnifique, je l'ai vu 4 fois atterrir/décoller à l'aéroport de Paris (LFPB) en 3 mois.

[@sergiosouza9615]

The B727 is the most beautiful and wonderful plane ever built in my opinion!!! It's PW JT-9D engines presents us with a lovely noise and a delicious smell of burned JET-A1.. Kind regards from São Paulo - Brazil... I LOVE THE B727!!! I LOVE ITS NOISE!!! I MISS YOU 727 :'-((

[@dailygamingmoments8470]

Sergio Souza were they grow ended I love the 727

[@rickfeng4466]

JT8D

[@luismartinez2596]

I just think that tri-jets in general are just beautiful planes, whether it’s this or the DC-10 or the MD-11..... all gorgeous planes.

[@rodolfocastro3222]

Completely agree!!!!

[@sebastianosettonni8573]

*sadness noises*

[@DjsAviation]

Great 727 catch mate.

[@GVASpotter]

Thanks!! :D

[@psa722]

Absolutely beautiful aircraft. I really miss the three holer. Didn't get to fly on.it enough.

[@fernandosiqueira3864]

Parabéns bela imagem! Para mim o 727-200 é uma das mais belas ✈ aeronaves que já vi! O som das turbinas a jato é fantástico! Emocionante! I love you 727-200

[@paulo.3065]

The engines on all 727 aircraft are the P&W JT8D. The JT9D is on the B-747. Big difference! @Sergio Souza

[@DatPlaneGuy]

Stunning, amazing viewing spot and lovely rotation. The 727 is such a beautiful aircraft. Liked!

[@GVASpotter]

Thanks a lot!! :D

[@virtuosowins]

that was an exquisite high quality capture, collector's video :) what a lovely 727 in a beautiful livery

[@jonathanjackson9208]

Such a stunning Super27

[@curtm97982]

You can really see the difference between the intake diameter of the two outboard JT8D-200 (I read somewhere that the Starling was updated with the JT8D-219) series engines and the center line original JT8D-17. The 200 series were higher bypass than the original which produced higher thrust more economically and quieter. In fact the 200 series meets stage 3 noise restrictions. If the center engine were able to be replaced with a 200 series and all three were equipped with the hush kits designed for the MD-80 series, the 727 would meet stage 4 noise restrictions at any airport in the world and this beautiful plane would still be flying. If only......

[@mylosairplanefan]

Very beautiful classic 727, nice footage buddy!

[@GVASpotter]

Thanks a lot! :D

[@junkers66]

I like how clear one can see the thrust reversers in action. Only now realize that the centre engine in not used for reversal.

[@johnnymclaneutah]

those two engines at the sides seem to be md-80 engines. the original engines dont have clamshell reversers.

[@MrCool82]

@@johnnymclaneutah the original motors did have clamshell TR's. However later in life they were changed to incorporate Stage II/III exhaust, some had a stove pipe looking exhaust with internal clamshells that when closed directed air flow through a version of cascade vanes. The vanes were only on the top and bottom of the exhaust duct, and IIRC, the internal doors were pneumatically operated not hydraulically.

[@RENDRAANJASMARA]

Love that wingtip.. do 727 can be refittet with wing from max

[@cyprixx]

Superb landing, beautiful paint job.

[@canadianplanespotter]

[@Wildlifesupernannyfan]

What an amazing beautiful airplane. You would be very lucky if your plane is a 727 boeing because they are rare!!!

[@mariannehoutzager9093]

I flew the Boeing 727 several times and I loved it! Such a pity the jet does not fly anymore due to noise problems.

[@RudivanGoch]

This one goes into my favs! Amazing you catched it! It could not stay as this GVA where all the rare stuff comes one day!! I am soo jealous! :P The most beautiful 727 EVER!!!

[@raoultak]

A 727 with winglets and full landing configuration: a beauty, isn't it? Does anybody know what kind of engines she has?

[@ignaciofuentezortiz]

[@GVASpotter]

SKBenergy I have no idea.. thanks! :)

[@jaybama72]

Awesome airplane!

[@wayneyd2]

The last time I flew in a 727 was 1994 in a Charter Midland airline to Ft Hood.

Awesome Catch !!!1 Caribbean Greetings !!!!

[@DanielSander]

Nice Rare Catch & Video Bud. Very Unique footage.

[@GVASpotter]

Thank you very much Buddy! :D

[@jrwxtx]

Beautiful livery. Who owns this...what is Starling? Beautiful choice of color and graphic design. Some of these private 747 & 777's that use a grey color scheme should take a lead from this plane.

[@orestes1984]

Starling owns it, they make interiors for private jets and also some of the first class interiors for Airbus.

[@italo7231]

[@24bellers20]

With new clean engines it would be unbeatable.👍👍

[@JelmersAviation]

Awesome video mate!

[@GVASpotter]

Thanks mate!! :DD

[@construccionesyproyeccione1963]

Aunque la mona se vista de seda mona se queda.. bonita pintura y todo pero no le quita los más de 50 años que tiene el 727 volando

[@octovehiclespotting5290]

Fact: this plane is stored at my local airfield: lasham

[@GVASpotter]

That's quite sad to know :( Do you know if it is a permanent storage or temporary ?

[@octovehiclespotting5290]

It's permanent but it recently had a flight around 2 days ago to make sure it still works

[@octovehiclespotting5290]

Aswell as 4 easy jet planes and a Ryanair

[@GVASpotter]

Sad news ! I sure do hope it will become active again. Thanks for the infos !

[@octovehiclespotting5290]

GVA Spotter it's ok I will update you on any info

[@jaimemaldonado4251]

Why not making 727 new generation ?

[@aarondengate8085]

I wonder where its based USA?

[@TheMarcogoon49]

Superbe!😜👍🏿

[@GVASpotter]

Merci!! :DD

[@MrJumentoalado]

Lindo pra um ca...lho

[@CarlosRoberto-sn1ri]

Se este jato tivesse a turbina de cima reta seria melhor (nao sou engenheiro). Mas esse tipo de aviao nao é bom.

[@Southwest_923WR]

You obviously don't know aircraft history OR design. Troll.

[@Phantomaviation]

it got retired just yersterday to be scrapped

[@reythehuman8457]

Wysi!!!

[@BarrettL1970]

I shall try to say this as eloquent as I can.... Gimme

[@eliascrookshank]

Loud, smokey, obnoxious, and not making any apologies. A real airplane doing what it does best. Air travel was so much better before the environmental loons and all of their ridiculous edicts.

[@jettnit1]

That’s is way too C👀L of a paint job to stay home!!!!

[@nickomplejo]

Too many videos of Private 727 to Switzerland... they come with a hughe load of cash to deposit in swiss banks? LOL

[@SKBenergy]

lol
