Delta Air Lines introduced the Boeing 767 to its fleet in the early 1980s, valuing the twin-engine aircraft for its fuel efficiency and medium-range capabilities. The 767 quickly became a backbone of Delta's domestic network. The aircraft holds a special place in the airline's history, most notably because in 1982, Delta employees famously pooled their own money to purchase a new 767-200, christened the "Spirit of Delta," to present to the company during a challenging economic period.
This clean, unposted postcard is a solid piece for collectors of commercial aviation memorabilia, airline advertising, or vintage aircraft postcards.
