What freqs should we used for the arrival today/takeoff later in the week?

The plane looks like a copy of a 727:

And here's one that lands after losing flight controls, steering via
engine/throttle control, forward to 5:50 for the landing:

It's a tough bird. This one survived an electrical failure and landed on an
abandoned, snow-covered runway, clearing out a couple of hundred yards of
brush . It took off from the same runway. At 1:30 - shows the plane in the
brush:
