Kalitta Chaters II has brought in N720CK (c/n 21298), a 727-2B6F/Adv, to handle air cargo duties on behalf of Pacific Air Cargo.
N720CK had been here in 2005 for Pacific Air Cargo to do runs to/from PPG, but was short-lived. In the photo above, this 727 has a Pacific Air Cargo logo near the main entry door. It was originally delivered to Royal Air Maroc as
CN-RMP.
Kitty Hawk Aircargo had done some inter-island cargo runs with 727-200Fs in the earlier part of the decade, but left after a brief run as they tried to compete against Aloha Airlines' cargo ops.
This airframe was in Seattle a few days ago:

While I lament the loss of Aloha, I DO love watching the 727 fly. What a beautiful airplane.
