Type rating on L-1011

[219joochiat]

Gentlemen,
We were wondering if besides European Aviation in Bournemouth, someone would know about where to get a type on the Tristar...
Actually we were looking for contacts of Delta or ex-Delta instructors/examiners as they used to have those L1011sims.
Any small piece of infos would be greatly appreciated.

American Trans Air (ATA)... Indianapolis, Indiana still flys the L1011 today. They have always used Delta for their training needs in the L1011. I don't know if Delta is still maintaining the simulator for contract work or not. Call them and ask the training department where they still go or if they are doing in house. Ie.. they may have purchased the simulator from Delta but continue to use it in place at the Delta Training Center in Atlanta.

This is a late reply but current. IFA still does Tristar type ratings.
