I need all FT help here... My son has become very interested in flying... I am certain I had nothing to do with it! In any event, he has challenged himself to fly on as many Boeing aircraft, as possible. He knows the 707 is pretty much out. But there are several 727s still out there. Does anyone know of any commercially operated ones... that are not in Africa?

I appreciate any help or thoughts!

Less than a year ago, he could have flown on a Delta 727. Just a little too late now, I'm afraid!

For someone who likes to fly, I would suggest trying to fly as many different aircraft types as possible. I prefer Boeing aircraft as well, but you have to be realistic about what's still out there.

In addition to flying the following types that are currently in service in the US ...

737-200
737-300
737-400
737-500
737-700 (I can't find a -600 in the US)
737-800
737-900
717
747 (the -400 is basically the same as the earlier ones, though the others might still be out there)
757-200
757-300
767-200
767-300
767-400
777 (different versions if wish)
A319
A320
A321
A330
A340
A300
DC-9 (various series if wish)
DC-10 (hurry, they're going fast)
MD-11 (also hurry)
F100
CRJ (barf)
ERJ
FRJ
Dornier 328 (turboprop version of FRJ)
Dash-8 (some versions exist)
B1900
EMB-120
Saab340
J31/J41


... he can also fly to lots of different airports

How many U.S. airports have you been in while flying commercially?
