It's really hard to define "a fully loaded 727." Boeing had all sorts of engine and landing gear and weight combinations. I flew that tail in a prior life in the US. It was built for Air Jamaica with -15s, a max TO weight of 197,000 lbs and max landing weight of 164,000 lbs. Quick look at the charts, SL, flaps 15, 27c says the runway limit is about 160,000 pounds.
Wasn't that the -200 that had some of those options and the -200A that had all the options?
