Where in this list is the 707 in present colors?

smoothjazz

I believe B707s never had present colors.
They all retired before present colors were introduced.

Many of us in the forum use their picture as references.
Should not be any problem, they are NOT used to make profits and print.

And there were posted with a hosting site, not directly from the .net.

In fact, Korean Air B727-200 was my very 1st flight in my life...
Very nice memories... I really miss sky-blue tail mounted engines trijets!

Here is a piture of variety of T tails at Nagoya, Japan.
KE came in from Seoul, NW was based in Japan for Asia connection flights
from Japan and CO probably a micronesia aircraft used between Japan to Guam or
Asia connection flights from Japan after their big sisters carry people from the US
mainland to Japan.

Just because it's not A.net doesn't mean it didn't exist.
There where several Korean 707s (both freighters and pax) painted in present colors. Although this happened fairly short before they left the fleet.

Two airframes in these colors were actually involved in incidents/crashes.
One was (IIRC) 7431 or 7433 doing a nose-gear up landing, Seoul, Sept.'87 - it carried "1988 Summer Olympics" stickers at this point, btw.

The other was Korean's only factory new 707-3B5C they ever received, KL7406. It was destroyed in bomb attack killing all 115 on board, Nov.'87.
Below you see this sad airframe HL7406.

Wow, Phantom,
I bow with respect for your expertise on these information.
I never knew there were B707 in present colors.
Maybe I was too young back then... I've seen many B707s with old colors
and thought they left before the new color was introduced.
Wow... B707 looks great with skyblue paints on!
Thanks again for the info!
