Lovely pics!     Delta doesnt have any 717s. Would be cool if they did!!    Also, isnt there sposed to be Delta written in white on the tail?
COOL PICS!

FrontierGuy, I thought the tail looked like it was missing something, but I found the following photo (from airliners.net) ...

the 727, just as good as the 717, although, the 717, you can land just about anywhere :-P

[ysteinbuch]

You are right! I stand corrected, Boeingman and FrontierGuy -- thanks.  ;)

The thrust reverse on 747s is done differently than on the DC-9/MD-80?BizJEts/717. With them, the thrust goes up to full and 'buckets' pop up to re-route it forward.  
On the 747, a similar thing happens- but no buckets.  The thrust is re-routed by the rear part of the nacelle that slides back.

As far as keys go, it's F2.

From a quick look, the 717 seems to use clam shell/ bucket type reversers. There is said to be a difference between them two, but that's beyond me
