This is very nice! The 880s flew for Delta for only two years while I was alive. Although they flew to my hometown airport I was too young to remember seeing any of them.

Great shot- ATL and ORD were the place to be in the 60's and 70's for a super variety of aircraft and airlines.

Nice shot of one of my favorites, the CV880`s & CV990`S were just as sexy as 757`s &777`s.
