Left to right: Bill Boeing, founder of the Boeing Company. Bill Allen, president of Boeing from 1944 to 1968. Finally, the Boeing 367-80. This was basically the prototype of the 707/KC-135 and it now resides in the Smithsonian.

Saha Air still flies this 707 for Iran. I've heard of airline junkies who book trips to Iran just to fly on this plane.

It is a pretty one. I've seen it at the Atlanta airport a few times. He will fly it up from Florida and take a comercial flight to Europe.

It was a poor joke about it being put on the market during the shutdown.
