Fate of L1011 D-AERC
I´ve seen a short video sequence of a bomb test in a L1011 yesterday during the news while reporting about the shoe-bomber. First pictures showed the plane from near and the registration D-AERC, then the bomb test was shown from greater distance so I suppose it was the same plane. The whole sequence was only a few seconds long and of bad quality.
D-AERC, L1011-385-1, msn 193A-1085, leased by LTU until 1991, former Eastern N329EA, later re-registered N329EA (infos from the web)
Does anybody know more about the test ? Who performed it, when took it place ? What were the results ? Is a report aviable ? Is the test video somewhere on the web ? Why was the german registration on the plane, if it should have been re registered in 1991 ?
any hints wellcome
