Jeez, please remind me to not ever, ever, open another thread with the words L1011 in it...
And, why not?
The one seemingly common demominator amongst operators that had 'problems'?
Brits.
All others?
The 'ole L10 worked OK, and made a handsome profit for their operators.
Delta
ANA
Royal Jordanian
Gulf Air
TWA
Eastern
Many more.
Perhaps it was that there were no Brits involved, to any great extent?
A blessing, it would appear.
