Rare Boeing Lineup At HNL
With the Omega Tanker 707-368, N707MQ (c/n 21368) on HNL's north ramp over the past few days, all of the Boeing 7_7 series can be seen at HNL.
Today's line-up:
707: Omega Air Tanker
717: Hawaiian
727: Asia Pacific
737: Aloha Air Cargo, Continental, WestJet, and Alaska
747: Japan, China, Delta, and Kalitta
757: American, Omni, US Airways, United, Delta, and Continental
767: Hawaiian, United, American, Japan, Delta, Continental, and Qantas
777: ANA and United
What would be really cool, that HNL replicate the line up at BFI.
N707MQ was delivered to Saudia in 1977 as HZ-ACK. It was then moved to the Saudi Arabian Royal Flight as HZ-HM3. It wore both the original jet fleet livery, and the current Saudi Arabian livery.

An exceptional roll of the dice. Savor that one.
ReplyDeleteJust need to get Boeing to send the 787 over for some warm weather testing before the 707 leaves.
ReplyDeleteI can also add that the Omega Tanker serves double roles as a 707 and a 717
ReplyDeleteThe Omega Tanker is a 707-300, not a KC-135 (717-100). It has no boom, and is a -300 airframe. I've been on it back '04.
ReplyDeleteAmazing info! Thanks for sharing..
