JLemon: If it's not too late, may I jump in and cast a vote to support Toshbaf in one of his earlier answers -- just ran across a copy of the Top Banana ad:

Hello
minliq! Hope all is well with you and your family over there in the New Orleans area. And I also hope you are prepared for possible tropical weather by this weekend as our National Hurricane Center (NHC) is now forecasting an 80% chance for a tropical depression to form in the Gulf of Mexico south of the Florida panhandle by the end of the week. What happens next is anyone's guess at the moment as the computer models do not agree on the future track of the system.....however, it appears at this time it will drift west in the Gulf in our direction and will also bring a huge amount of rain.
Now to the illustration of the Hughes Airwest button you were kind enough to post. I believe in this case "Top Banana" refers to the airline and thus not the equipment (and that sure looks like a DC-9-30 to me

). At any rate, the source material I used for this quiz item states "3 flights daily on the new _______ Banana 727-200". And the missing word in the blank here is not "Top". I shall supply the evidence with the answer, of course.
