B727-172C cn 19665 N725AL
Delivered  to Airlift 10/23/67
Jet Airliner Production List (1992 edition) Leased to several different
airlines between but I don't see National listed

I couldn't find it listed at Aeromoe's excellent fleet listings
(http://www.geocities.com/~aeromoe/fleets/na2.html)

However, at http://www.ntsb.gov/ntsb/brief.asp?ev_id=3858&key=0, I did find
where the aircraft was involved in an incident and the operator was listed
as NA.

Now, trivia question.  There was the National Airlines based in MIA and the
one based in LAS.  In between was another National Airlines.  Anybody care
to guess what the original name of this airline was?  Bonus points - what
type of aircraft did it operate?
