The Northwest Orient 727-100 retired from flight operations last week. It has been the workhorse of the Vintage Airport Program for many years and it's finally stopping its flight operations. It will still be open for tours in the display hanger.

The Vintage Airport Program announced that it will get three former AirTran aircraft. They include, AirTran 717 Normal Livery, AirTran 717 Orlando Magic and last but not least, an AirTran 737-700 Normal Livery. The Vintage Airport Program got the 717's because Delta did not need them and that the same reason for Southwest Airlines and the 737-700. They plane on operating the two normal AirTran aircraft but the Orlando Magic 717 will stay in the display hanger.
Today, the vintage airport program got an American Airlines MD-80 for the museum of flight. It will go by the American Airlines DC-10 on display in the hanger. The aircraft will be open for tours but will not fly.
