411A,

The more you post, the more you show your ignorance of the RAF Tristar Fleet.

If you knew what you are talking about, you would know why this statement

Hmmm, hold fuel tanks not all that serviceable, considering the mission as it's defined today...personnel transport.
is just so dumb.

Please only comment on things you actually know about. You fly a civilian unmodified version of the aircraft, we have a mixed fleet of 3 (4 if you split the C2 and C2A) versions (try google) of the L1011-500, all quite different. It may help you to know that most delays are for equipment not fitted on standard civilian aircraft, if you discount these delays the dispatch rate goes up quite markedly.
