Lockheed L-1011 Tristar Simulator - Blast from the past!

Believe it or not, this simulator retains its FAA certification to this day and is FULLY OPERATIONAL! It's a joy to fly as well. It's amazing flying this bird, then going over to the 777-200ER simulator to experience first hand how far technology has come. I shot these two photos tonight at work. Note the ATA flowchart on the flight engineer station.

Also, the remnants of the L-1011 prototype are at the Delta Air Lines Heritage museum on the Delta Campus as well, only today she serves as a gift shop!

HAHAH, everything can be related back to a lolcat.

Back on topic,

I wish I could have flown one of these workhorses. They sounded like they were an experience to fly on.

Chris, I really enjoy your sim photos!

I will swap an Airbus for a tristar ride! :borat: :wink:

Ahhh the L10 sim.... Great picture, do you have more???

Great Shots, just saw them in JP. What I woulden't do to get to fly in that! You must have a fun job.
