The 727s have a waste mast under the belly.
That is the way the "liquids" go...

Reminds me of an incident with a 727-200 sometimes in the 1970s.
The waste mast is heated... obvious reason.
I do not recall the airline, irrelevant anyway.
Was (I think) somewhere in the Midwest USA...
A 727-200 was cruising, mast heater failed. Icicle grew under the belly.
Airplane started its approach down into... warmer temperatures.
Big icicle flew into nš 1 or nš 3 engine. Engine failed. FOD...

Was some damage to the first stages of the JT8D engine.
They analysed the damage on the blades... Found traces of human feces.
So, on our crew bulletin board, a note -
"Amendment to 727 MEL. Cannot dispatch with mast heater INOP".

One of our illustrious (PanAm) F/E added a note below...
"
Where were YOU when the sh*t hit the fan...?"
