A lovely, elegant aeroplane . Was this a dash 500 ?
Re: Tristar Nostalgia
Nice looking, but about 10 years ago I flew on an Air Transat L1011, and in the words of the Comic Store Guy, "worst flight ever" She was a creaky old bird, the seats we were allocated were like rocking chairs and when it landed at CYYC to change the crew, I wouldn't say it was a hard landing, but I'm pretty sure I bruised my coccyx. ![confused :S](./images/smilies/confused.gif)

Pretty bird.
At 3:03 a BA ATP makes a brief cameo...wearing Landor clothes no less.

Hi John,
Thanks for posting that, i did like the Tristar and that was one of my favorite liveries that Delta used and those Rolls-Royce RB.211 engines had a lovely sound.
Cheers,
Roger.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.

I noticed that too, but hopefully with time and maybe some therapy I'll get over it...eventually

Re: Tristar Nostalgia
Nice video clip and lovely sounds.However at the risk of incurring the wrath of some I have to say that I prefer the looks of the DC10.
Maybe it has something to do with the fact that we had a few flights on the 10 including our first 'exotic' holiday in '81 on a Laker DC10-30 into LAX.The world has changed so much since then.

Re: Tristar Nostalgia
The first one was a standard, the second one was a 500. The way to tell is the door behind the wing. The standard has a large and small door. Never could understand the logic behind that dinky little door. Probably something to do with evacuation requirements.
Re: Tristar Nostalgia
Thanks for posting, John. Good video and sound.
