Anyone have any info on 2 Lockheed L1011 aircraft supposedly parked in Tehran At the completion of a Libyan Arab Airlines lease contract early 2006, both aircraft ferried to THR for storage. Both aircraft require heavy checks prior to return to service...which is not at all likely. NB. During the one year lease to LAA, both aircraft had a dispatch rate of 100%, much to the surprise of LAA management, who were having their own problems at the time with two A300-600 parked most of the time due mx issues. This program was generally called...'TriStars to the rescue due AOG Airbii.' |
Dear God, how long have you been flying those things? Awhile to go, too.:ok: |
Were you in command for your first hour on type? Just curious.
|
Were you in command for your first hour on type? In fact, never anything other than in command on any jet transport. |

Congrats on your last post number = 7447.
BTW what was the story about Air Canada 1011's "out of breath" on the trans atlantic runs in the past?:rolleyes: |
Anyone kow the backround of the Tristar parked up at Stansted all these years. Looks like shes had at least a couple of different reg painted on her. Did she belong to Classic Airways at any point
|
Not Classic Air. Try BA, Caledonian and Air Ops. Last used as a tug and jetway training vehicle. (G-IOIT, c/n 1145)
|
Stn L1011
Rgretfully she was one of ours that the BAA held after Air Ops went to the wall - They were good and reliable birds-we had 7 of them operating

Just a rumour/comment remembered form the late 70's when AC were operating Tristars to LHR, that they were close to max range, and RR engines were hot on arrival.
|
just googled G-IOIT, and she WAS classic airways according to the link i found. She had a sister ship that was scrapped on sight, but this one was kept for training purposes. Ive seen the RAF there too, practising recovery
|
Are you sure?
I have the Classic Air plane as G-IOII, c/n 1118.;) |
