I’m going with this one from the archives. N102DA “The Spirit of Delta”, at the Farnborough Air Show on 11 Sept 1982, prior to entering commercial service in December 1982.

In Spring 1982 Delta employees spearheaded “Project 767” to raise money to pay for Delta’s first Boeing 767, as a thank you to the company that had stood by them in difficult times. Led by three flight attendants, the project was an effort to raise $30 million through the combined donations of employees, retirees and friends. N102DA was retired in 2006, It’s now in the Delta museum in Atlanta.
