Question for 411A

411A:

Since your memory is SOOOOOOOOOO good-how many hull losses did the Tri-Star suffer? As an EAL grad, we lost the one in the Everglades. Several near-misses, esp. the one with the three-engine oil leak. Saudia lost one on the ground (cabin fire), DL lost the one in a TRW at DFW, but are they any others??

Lockheed builds excellent, lucky planes! Compare to the MD-11! Mega-insurance headache
