LOCKHEED L-1011 TRISTAR AIRCRAFT PROTOTYPE MOCK-UP FOOD SERVICE TEST FILM 63704

[@bjmajor]

This is just another example of what a class act the L-1011 was. Even this "food test" shows off what fantastic facilities she had! Fab.

[@Rickky007]

I flew a lot in the 90s as kid the L1011 is the one that I remember being the most comfortable, smooth, spacious , yeah I was the kid walking back-and-forth through the aisles lol.

[@atomsmash100]

The beverage fountain on the first class beverage cart was awesome. I've never seen that on any airline in actual operation.

[@kennethramonet5421]

This is absolutely fascinating!!

[@waynemartin4881]

The hot tea and coffee pots just sat on top of the cart, just waiting to fall off during sudden turbulence. 😮

[@rolf3590]

the best jet I've ever flown

[@olfrygt]

You've never been on a 787 or A380?

[@JackieontheTrunk]

It sure sounded like Art Ballinger as the voice actor.

[@luizfmaluta7456]

Voei nele....Luanda - Ascenção- Londres....em 92...refugiado.

[@domenicopasquarelli2353]

Best plane ever.

[@65gtotrips]

China ? Silver ? Crystal ? Actual Food ? Whole Turkey’s ? 8 Lb Rib Roast ? These days in 2023, even if in first class you’re lucky to get any food on a flight, especially a 90 minute one.

[@fordlandau]

Returning unused food after the flight ? That idea never flew !

[@atomsmash100]

haha, yeah that never happened

[@eddieafterburner]

6:19 My man sporting the 6 ft whip antenna on his walkie-talkie

[@eddieafterburner]

14:32 Wouldn’t be the 70s without a salad of hearts of lettuce with green goddess dressing … wonder if they got pineapple carrot jello mold infused with slivered almonds for dessert

[@flyc3]

I’m sure Ryanair carried out similar tests with frozen Lasagne for those that want it at 7am in the morning for €15…

[@PalmBeachDog]

That sure is a lot of labor and investment due to the fact that people can’t seem to go 90 min without a frozen dinner.

[@65gtotrips]

Well, at least the passenger’s ears didn’t get clogged and had to clear themselves.

[@kallabos7538]

Long before ATLAS and KSSU galley standards.

[@thomasburke7995]

Man this has foood poisoning written all over it. Worked in aviation from 1988 to 2017. The change has been enormous

[@flightfernando]

The real flight is Weird...this so a actuators for selling not a real life, turbulences, and a 1 hour flight quick service.

[@winthrop2005]

Never again.....

[@evilpandakillabzonattkoccu4879]

Can't fool me, Lockheed.....thats still just a DC-10 and I dont fly in DC-10s or DC-10 clones.

[@tuffguy428]

You nor anyone else, DC-10's haven't flown passengers since 2014.

[@evilpandakillabzonattkoccu4879]

@@tuffguy428 That's true. The new 737 Max fuselages get trained past my place....those are looked sweet but then....you know....Lion Air JT610.

[@evilpandakillabzonattkoccu4879]

@jack torrence 32 accidents with 11 hull losses....not too bad. Doesnt change my opinion on them though. Thanks.

[@evilpandakillabzonattkoccu4879]

@jack torrence ...and tristar's L-1011 resulted in a total of 539 fatalities by 2011. ....do you have a point? How does any of this apply to a subjective opinion?

[@evilpandakillabzonattkoccu4879]

@jack torrence *_yawn_* wow...youre as pedantic and boring as you are petulant. Anything else to add? You seem like you _need_ the last word so, have at it Hoss:

[@albear972]

DC-10 all the way! screw the l1011

The almost 1000 people that went down with the Death Cruiser 10 do not agree

[@andreweasternman8788]

Please explain in great depth and detail, why you feel this way. I need to know what you don't about the differences between the two designs, which pivoted your decision on this.😳🤔
