N17025 / N77780 (cn 20535) None of the four aircraft in this 1993 photo taken from the parking garage, are still with the Continental fleet. Indeed, their very types have long since been retired. A CO 747 and DC-10 sit at the IAB gates, as well as two 727-200s, (N77780, cn 20635 is one.) All the trees in the distance are also long gone making way for two new runways. (Sorry about the poles! 35mm scan.)

How great it would be to find roughly the same place, and go back now and see what's parked there as a sign of the times.

Awesome shot of a piece of Continental history and man have they had the same livery for a long time.
