@ IdolHans , Realllyyy? So what do u fly by the way. And how many Lockheed acfts have u flown in your life

[L747]

heheh, tks for the explanation rfresh1011 , but all he was doing was smtg he could´t do it himself ....... ( they are all over the place, no matter where you go)

[evilmontezuma87]

Any L-1011 still operating? This is a leyend in the skies most pilots I talk to say this plane was a beauty to fly. If I ever became a multi millionare I would like to buy this plane

[L747]

@evilmontezuma87 There are very few flying, but it is still possible to see them. Prob the most common are from RAF as they still operate the great L1011. Indeed it was a beauty flying this airplane. Tks for the comment

Looks like a nice landing! What airport is this?

[L747]

@lglesto Madrid, Barajas, LEMD

@solomonpilot767 , well solomon the critic / comment wasn´t meant for you, it was for that pitbull prick , as an a appreciation of yor comment and you misunderstood it.

But well since you got offended with it, fuck you too.  Nice flights

nice vid. that was cool of the captain to let his junior land the plane, complete with the throttles. Bet that was an experience. Le sigh, if only I was good in math, I'd have been a pilot instead of a cop.

ATA used to fly these out of Indy (KIND) and everytime I went to Vegas, it was on one of these badboys. Direct. I loved it. It also was a favorite charter for military, and it carried me from Indy to San Diego for boot camp. Great plane, very large and smooth. But, in this business, you have to make room for the new guys and technology must continue to progress. Otherwise, we'd still be flying DC-3 Dakotas! (Not that I would mind :)

detesto cmte dando pitaco em operação desnecessáriamente..bando de velhos inseguros. Ainda bem que hj sou o cmte e não faço isso desnecessariamente com meus copilas....chato pra caralho isso

@IdolHans lockeed l1011 was more refined than dc 10, due to mcdonnel douglas rushing the dc 10 into production for the then emerging jumbo jet market. l1011 had very little serious accidents resulting from aircraft design faults.

Where was this landing? Far too shaky and badly exposed!

[IdolHans]

@L747 --the biggest and most unreliable of them all----the C-5! 7000 hours instructor FE. The DC / KC10 is far more reliable. But Boeing is the one that's "got it going"!

[aspiringdrummer17]

@IdolHans The L-1011 was one of the safest and most reliable airliners ever made. You must be getting confused with McDonnell Douglas and their DC-10

[Einhander49]

@hellcat29er What does math have to do with flying an airliner? It's not like you have to manually calculate the slope and angle of approaches and landings.

Awesome vid! Very cool of you to share.

another unreliable Lockheed aircraft.
