Smile FedEX Boeing 727 - N269FE Final Flight
I caught this very rare sight at London Stansted Airport a few days ago, FedEx Boeing 727 N269FE on it's final flight. It was passing via Stansted to Turkey where, I believe, it had been donated to a museum.

Video has some ATC chatter too..

Great video of a lovely classic. We had a final departure of this beauty in VCP too, and it even had a wing wave, saying goodbye...

Re: FedEX Boeing 727 - N269FE Final Flight
It's incredible to me how I used to drive by major US airports and see lines of FedEx 727's just a couple years ago it feels like. And now a couple months ago while driving by Indianapolis (a major FedEx hub), 757's were the mainstay (and even some 767s tucked in between the MD-10s). Makes me feel kind of old!
