    Not a Boeing 727, but actually an MD-80, an "MD-81" (DC-9-81) to be exact, N924PS (c/n 48034/946) delivered to PSA in November 1980 and named "Smile of Burbank". With US Air's takeover of PSA April 1988 the aircraft would be re-registered as N800US and continue in operation until April 2002. The aircraft would be scrapped sometime in 2005.

    Fingerprints on this slide?

    During an approach, most aircraft have a nose-up attitude, Something that has always looked disturbing (to me) is that normal approach procedures for DC-9/MD-80/MD-81 involve pointing the aircraft nose down. I'm not a pilot but guess you do a flare to set the main gear down just before touch down. You obviously don't want the whole aircraft weight on the nose gear.
