    My mom and stepdad met building L1011's at Lockheed's Burbank plant in L.A in the early 80's. I flew on one once, and it was among the quietest, smoothest planes I've ever been on. Pretty cool!

    An un-contained engine failure is when debris is shed radially penetrating the outside of the engine. If the debris goes out the back OR the front of the engine in a failure it is NOT un-contained failure: that is how they are designed and certified.

      The airplane that flew me from SEA to Orlando, Fla Dec. 18, 1980 for United States Navy boot camp was a Delta Airlines L1011 Tristar. Very quiet, comfortable roomy airplane to fly across country in. It was my first commercial flight in a non Boeing aircraft & was my last flight as a civilian for many years.

We had the last 3 seats in the tail and my Grandmother (who used to make sandwiches in the departures tent when Heathrow first opened to civilian aircraft) said “don’t worry, the tail always survives ! “…a beautiful powerful looking and feeling aircraft…

    • @hendricstattmann3638
      @hendricstattmann3638 5 місяців тому +5

      That's highly unlikely. Trijets however are allowed to perform a takeoff and ferry flight on two engines. The restrictions are very strict (briefing, no payload, minimum mission time and fuel, etc.)
      This is to allow the aircraft to evacuate an airfield in case of an engine failure, whereas the problem cannot be fixed on site.

    1:21 A few years ago, I witnessed a HH-60M taxi out and lift into a hover in a large droplet rain storm. It was amazing to watch the rain flow thru the main and tail rotors wash. You can see the rain accelerate thru the rotor and bounce off the ground effect, then witness the rain go through the tail rotor balancing the torque of the main rotor. Unfortunately it was to far away for an iPhone camera to record it. Helicopter aerodynamics 101.

      Because pilots would lose valuable flying skills that would be desperately needed in the event they would need to take over. It's a balancing act, like everything in life. Would you like incompetent pilots trying to land a plane with a malfunctioning auto pilot in an emergency?
      Auto landing is reserved for those cases where pilots would not be otherwise capable to land the plane due to poor visibility, but can safely take control if it is needed for a go around.

      Pilots need to have X numbers of takeoffs and landings to keep their licenses. And they like to do it, since it is fun.

      Not every aerodrome or aircraft meet the technical requirements for that kind of landing

      Even when the technical requirements are met, autolandings have a negative impact on a runway's capacity

    I flew L-1011s on TWA and Eastern so many times as a kid, and on ATA on a trip to Hawaii. It still looks so elegant, especially compared to the DC-10.

    Haha, I was on that flight from Doha to Manchester a couple months back! On the way back we had a delay of over 40 hours and it was terrible. Then we had to fly to Doha hours late, missed our transfer flight (Doha to Auckland, New Zealand) and had to divert to Melbourne then to Auckland the next day. They gave us a hotel room each for the night but it was quite a journey! Lol.

    I flew on the TriStar back in 1989...British Caledonian. I'll never forget that. I believe it was from London Gatwick to Malaga.

    L1011 deserved more success, it is a shame it was a commercial failure.
