The very last flight of a Boeing 720 IN THE WORLD!
Pratt & Whitney's Boeing 720 «Pinocchio» took off for his last flight. TODAY! This is the 154th Boeing 720 and it is thelast airworthy Boeing 720 in the world. Now has reached a new level by being lendt to the Royal Canadian Air Force national museum in Trenton, Ontario. The plane has retired 2 years ago from operation as you can read in the article posted, but today was the last time the test-bed took off to the skies for a last flight from Saint-Hubert (CYHU) to Trenton (CYTR).

The first aircraft type I ever flew in! Sad day - and another reminder that I am getting old!!
The only B 720's which flew in Australia belonged to the R A A F, so the public didn't get to see them. I looked up the images of the aircraft on Flight Aware Aviation Photos & found out what the aircraft looked like, bit I was a bit confused with the images of B 720 aircraft registered PWC 720, which has what appears to be a turbo-prop unit in the nose. Is this correct, and if so, why was it installed, and was it a regular occurrence, or just a " one off ?"
