The Flight to Victorville was the final flight of a Delta L1011. Ship number 728 was retired from passenger service on July 31, 2001. The historic flight to Victorville occurred the next day with especially selected Delta employees accompanying the TriStar to her final resting place in the aircraft boneyard at the California desert airport. This flight marked the end of a great era of L1011 service for Delta Air Lines.

  • You know I just received an email forwarded from my father going around to many former Delta employees. The email linked me to this video and mentions you and gives thanks to you for making it. Anyway, thought you'd like to know.

    Ciao

  • @PoSeiDoNN91 Thanks for letting me know that many of my former friends and coworkers are enjoying the video. I was a pleasure putting it together.

  • what is the final song ?

  • The sound track on my video includes:

    1.Audio from the Delta Air Lines archives video

    2.Memories – Top Gun Sound Track Album

    3.Audio from an old Delta Air Lines commercial

    4.Take My Breath Away – Top Gun Sound Track Album

    5.Audio from an old Delta Air Lines commercial

    6.Audio from the Delta Air Lines archives video

  • I was singing the part "We're Delta...Delta Air Lines" in the 80's commercial. I had to stand on a coke crate to be tall enough to match those coming up singing behind me. My favorite non-rev memories revolve around the L10-11 and First Class royal service! Remember the ice cream sundaes? Thanks for the video!

  • @ladyev22

    Thanks for the nice comments. Yes, these were certainly the "good old days" for Delta and the airline industry. I too fondly remember the first class service, the ice cream sundaes, and all the great Delta people I met during my career.
