Sorry guys, the 727 is a "lumbering beast" at MGTOW.
The 100 model at light weights is much better.
Can't tell which engines the sim has but that made a lot of difference.
There were several engine configurations.
JT8-7
JT8-9
JT8-15
JT8-17R.
The most powerful 727 that I have seen was in Deltas paint shop in Atlanta about 15 yrs ago.
It was a 100 with MD90 engines at 1 and 3 and a -15 in the center.
The cockpit was part glass also.
I beleive it belonged to the Gettys family.
Would have loved to fly that thing.
