The Chicago Bulls' charter Boeing 727-227/Adv [N17773] departs Chicago O'Hare [01.15.2013]

As Bulls announcer and former Bulls Center Stacey King would say, "GIMME THE HOT SAUCE, FUNK!" N17773, a former Continental Airlines Boeing 727-227/Adv currently owned by Monfort Aviation, was initially parked just South of the old Signature Flight Support building on the East side of O'Hare International Airport next to Bessie Coleman Drive. When I got to the airport, the aircraft was moved to the new site of Signature Flight Support to meet the team's buses, limos, and private cars. I couldn't see who was who, but I could definitely tell it was the whole Chicago Bulls team. Shortly thereafter, I started filming and here's what I got. Departure was luckily off Runway 32-Right, so I got the entire takeoff roll and the VERY smoky climb!!! The flight was from Chicago O'Hare Int'l ( KORD / ORD ) to Toronto Pearson Airport ( CYYZ / YYZ ), where the Bulls played the Toronto Raptors last night and defeated them 107-105 in OT. I can't wait for D. Rose to come back! http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N17773/history/20130115/2015Z/KORD/CYYZ Last night, after the game, the plane took off with the Bulls on-board once again, this time en-route to Boston Logan Int'l Airport ( KBOS / BOS ), where the Bulls are scheduled to play, and hopefully beat the Celtics. ©Copyright 2013 joseg2143 - Chicago O'Hare International Airport (KORD / ORD ) Planespotting / Plane Spotting / Aircraft Spotting DO NOT USE WITHOUT WRITTEN PERMISSION Recorded with a Canon PowerShot SX40HS on Tuesday, January 15th, 2013.
