PowerRanger - for a consultant you don't seem to be thinking this through!

If the price is low enough, people will buy them. Why? Well, not to part out - L10 spares are already sold by the pound rather than the part number.

They will be sold because it will be worth peoples' while to return them to service.

The return to service of a significant number of L1011s, in my book, does indeed represent a significant improvement on the aircraft's fortunes where until recently the only people actively looking at getting L1011s in the air were 411A and myself.

So yes, I'd be inclined to say - cautiously - that it does indeed appear that the comeback of these magnificent aircraft could well be on the cards.

The coming weeks and months will show whether this is indeed the case!
