Description:Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 28. Chapters: McDonnell Douglas DC-10, Lockheed L-1011 TriStar, Fairchild Swearingen Metroliner, Boeing 747SP, Boeing 2707, Swearingen Merlin, Lockheed L-2000, Fairchild C-26 Metroliner, Ahrens AR 404, Conroy Tri-Turbo-Three. Excerpt: The Lockheed L-1011 TriStar, commonly referred to as just L-1011 (pronounced "ell-ten-eleven") or TriStar, is a medium-to-long range, widebody passenger trijet airliner. It was the third widebody airliner to enter commercial operations, following the Boeing 747 and the McDonnell Douglas DC-10. Between 1968 and 1984, Lockheed manufactured a total of 250 TriStars. After production ended, Lockheed withdrew from the commercial aircraft business due to its below-target sales.

However, having experienced difficulties with some of its military programs, Lockheed was eager to re-enter the civil market, and its response was the L-1011 TriStar. The aircraft was originally conceived as a "jumbo twin," but a three-engine design was ultimately chosen to give the aircraft enough thrust to take off from existing runways.
