Hi everyone!.
Have some of questions regarding the Private Tristars out there, any
answers would be very much appreciated:
The two that belonged to the Saudi Royal Family (msn 293A-1249, msn
193G-1250), and are now property of a Vegas Casino (Las Vegas
Sands), why are they parked at Ardmore?.
I heard that they are to be used in a Las Vegas -Macau operation,
does the Tristar have the range both ways?.
A Saudi prince has two, (Abdul Aziz Al-Ibrahim) one parked in the
middle east (msn 193Y-1195), and another one parked at Marseille(msn
193G-1250) . Why are both grounded?.
Is it because of a lack of spares?.
How much would it cost to purchase one of them?. (The Saudi Royal
Flight ones were sold not too long ago)
How much approximately would it cost to keep this machines grounded,
and how much would it cost to keep them operating?.
Has anyone seen any of these machines inside?. Does anyone have
recent pictures of them?.
And another question:
There is a company called Dragonfly Brazil that supposedly has private tristars for charter service.
They advertise a "royal l-1011". But if I`m not mistaken this is one
of the machines that belong to the Saudi Prince (msn 193H-1247),
does the Prince rent it?. They also claim to have other Tristars
(250 variant) for charter service, what airframes are they (serial
number, registration number))?.
Is it a scam?.
I saw from a message board a rumour that msn 193H-1247, would be
sold to the U.S. goverment, is it true?.
All the best
Camilo
