A very tired 727 spotted at Chino Airport.  This aircraft started life as part of the Pan Am fleet (1967-81) as the “Clipper Unity” (later names: Clipper Hamburg, Clipper Orpheus, Clipper Spreeathen, and Clipper Sausewind).   She has bounced around several private owners since 1981.  Original conversion in 1984, Renovated in 1998 with current livery and executive interior.  The only Boeing trijet, the 727 first flew in 1963 with more than 1,800 produced from 1962-84.  The last commercial passenger flight of the type was in January 2019 with Iran Aseman Airlines.  Nikon D7100 w/18-200mm.
