A dude named Mike Martin on FB:

Braniff 353 is enroute to Acapulco from DFW on March 3, 1979, and right now we're 72 north of Corpus Christi (CRP) at FL 330. Just a bit over Mach .80 and indicating 290 knots. I'm tracking inbound on the CRP 355 radial using the manual turn knob of the autopilot located on the pedestal, down and to my left. My personal preference was to use the autopilot only during cruise since the 727 was such a great hand-flying airplane.

Aircraft is N436BN, a 2-tone blue 727-227. Four-day domestic trips were rare on the 727 at Braniff but we're in the middle of one here.

Not a jet but definitely worthy of photos (and videos):
