What about this? No elevator position indicators?
"...the crew, headed by Delta captain Jack MacMahan, was able to save a Lockheed 1011 in 1977 when the left elevator jammed full up. There is no cockpit indicator for this type of failure on the 1011, and the ground crew did not notice the problem. Macmahan controlled the airplane with differential thrust to a landing in Los Angeles"
