Eastern Airlines was the first airline to have this bird in passenger service worldwide. N301EA first in service, it was white when it first started flying!
Made by GeminiJets in China, this model is a must-have for collectors looking to add a Lockheed L-1011 to their collection. The scale of 1:400 ensures that every intricate detail of the aircraft is accurately represented, making it a valuable addition to any aviation display.
N301EA was the first TriStar to fly as a commercial airliner. Eastern Airlines was the launch customer and was the first in the world flying customers. When the L1011 started service, all L1011's were painted white. Then they realized that by scraping the paint, the vessel flew lighter and kept them bare metal. That same time, Eastern Airlines was the Official airlines of Walt Disney World in Orlando. I flew on a L1011 and inside the aircraft, the had many goodies and advertisement for Disney. Napkins, tray cover, for kids coloring books of Walt Disney World. It was something else :-)*****That is the origen of TriStar Mania.
