If I remember right Ports of Calls Aircraft didn't have the hush kit at first. They had to up-grade to Operate as a regular scheduled airline with a company out of Salt Lake City. With once or twice weekly service Salt Lake City, Denver, and destinations in Mexico.
Thats when they added the SKYWORLD name. Ports had a 727-100 and thats what they used on that route the most. After a couple of years the contract ended and they put the PORTS OF CALL back on there planes.

Wish I could remember more for you guys.

727 photo, can't find one in (SKYWORLD) Paint.

"NO" .... that's correct !

They most certainly wouldn't all have had these at first.

Hush Kits didn't begin to come into affect until after 1983 .... and possibly even as late as 1986 .... and even later than that too for some aircraft who's owners/operators obtained temporary waivers/dispensations.

Certainly though .... at least 1 of the B707-320B/C images, and that last B707-120B image too .... each depict Hush Kitted engines .... evidenced by the longer engine intake casing.

There's also another variation of DENVER - PORTS OF CALL livery for the CV990 which we really should consider too .... the earlier version with a natural metal bum !
