A visitor from United States posted Wed April 20, 2011: Wow! I do certainly remember that I saw L1011 came in FLL everyday. I always watch the L1011. I would appreciated it for flying on L1011. I knows L1011 is long gone forever. She will never fly again. I am very sad to see L1011 go.
A visitor from Germany posted Sun April 17, 2011: I had the pleasure to fly with a Delta 1011 back from JFK to FRA in 1994 and this picture brings back all the memories!
A visitor from United States posted Sun April 17, 2011: Fabulous photo of a fabulous plane; I loved the "Tri Stars" all except for one thing; on the DC-10/MD-11, the entire vertical stab/rudder assy.(and all hydraulics to them) are directly above that big No.2 engine; if it "blows up", goodbye flight controls ! I was at Sioux City, Iowa when the United DC-10 made the emergency landing due to this happening. Many perished; You don't ever want to see an airliner crash. The L-1011 on the other hand, has the engine much farther forward, so I assume the hydraulics are not "at risk" from this happening. Probably the best airliner ever built that "didn't make it" as to acceptance by carriers. But a fine A/C none the less. So yes, definitely, "Long live the Lockheed L-1011!"
A visitor from United States posted Sun April 17, 2011: Great photo! I had the pleasure of going on a test flight on 741 in 1996 and it is an experience I will never forget!! Long live the L-1011!
A visitor from - posted Sun April 17, 2011: Sweet pic bringing back good memories, although I dont remember seeing any DL Tristars in ORY. Nice to see all these 1980's familiar sights: the yellow AdP logo on the trucks, the old buses parked on the top left (which was the type used in Paris streets as well), the tricolor Air Libert
