Pulling up from LGA's r/w 04 with the smog of New York hanging in the background, this 727 served Northwest from 11.64 to 5.77 when sold to PSA as N973PS. Leased to Mexicana as XA-MEN for two years from 9.80 and back to Northwest after return, reverting to original reg in 1.84. Donated to Wentworth Inst Tech 9.92 and grounded at Hanscom Field, MA as a training aid
