N467US

B727-51 c/n 18803 Northwest Orient then to Piedmont,then to Key Air as mentioned regarding early Janet flights....scrapped in 1992 by the Memphis Group Mississippi.

Incidentally,a part called a "Cooper Vane" or a "Cooper Lock" was retrofitted to all rear airstaired aircraft to prevent the stairs from being deployed inflight! It literally blew into place during flight. I used to see them when I worked on B727 and MD80 aircraft.
