Re: Lockheed Tristar
I've got lots somewhere but here are a few really old ones for starters:
The demo Lockheed Tristar on it’s first visit to the UK (August / Sept 1972) I remember that it first landed at East midlands so that the Rolls Royce workers at Derby could see what the engines they were building we being mounted upon, it then visited Heathrow and Gatwick where it did several demo flights before appearing at the Farnborough Air show by which time it’s tail was painted in BEA’s colours (the old dark blue union jack)
then Farnborough 1974, a PSA example demonstrating it's potential:
Farnborough 1974 L1011 PSA by Andrew Goldsmith, on Flickr
and another from Gatwick c.1976, a Delta example
LGW 1976 airliners general by Andrew Goldsmith, on Flickr
i'll dig out more when I have time, thanks for starting the thread, one of my favourite airliners

Re: Lockheed Tristar
here are some more Tristars from me, all scanned from negatives starting with another pic of Stansted's long term resident tug training Tristar G-CEAP taken back in 1998
Stansted 1998 Tristar G-CEAP tug trainer by Andrew Goldsmith, on Flickr
the following were all from Heathrow in 1991
A40-TY of Gulf Air
LHR15-7-1991 A40-TY L.1011 Gulf Air by Andrew Goldsmith, on Flickr
Air Portugal's CS-TEG
LHR15-7-1991 CS-TEG L.1011 Air Portugal by Andrew Goldsmith, on Flickr
another Gulf Air example but of rather dubious quality
LHR15-7-1991 L.1011 Gulf Air by Andrew Goldsmith, on Flickr
and then from Southend EI-COL in August 1998 soon after it's arrival on what was ultimately it's final flight
southend 08-1998 L.1011 EI-COL by Andrew Goldsmith, on Flickr
and all that remained of it in early March 1999..
southend 03-1999 L.1011 EI-COL by Andrew Goldsmith, on Flickr
a rather sad end.
hopefully I can find some more with my next batch of scanning

Re: Lockheed Tristar
A graceful aircraft compared to the DC10. Who remembers the saga of Rolls-Royce insolvency and the RB211 engine ?
