From Western to Delta: A B727 That Bridged Two Airlines
In the 1980s, U.S. airlines were entering a new era. Some expanded, some faded into history, and others merged to create the carriers we know today. One aircraft, a Boeing 727-200 Advanced registered N292WA, lived through this transformation. Delivered brand new to Western Airlines in 1980, one of the last jets the airline would ever receive, it later traded its red and white “Flying W” for Delta’s blue widget after the 1987 merger. For over two decades, N292WA connected passengers from coast to coast, quietly bridging the legacies of two airlines. Today, its story is preserved as Delta 727 PlaneTags.
