Lockheed Tristar L1011-500 ZE704 RAF 2014

This aircraft is 34 years old ! It flew with Pan Am until 1984, and since all these years it belongs to Royal Air Force . I would like to thank captain and his crew to allow me on board during this stop in Nice on their way to Cyprus .

Thank you, wonderful to see this one in action. The TriStars don't seem to even need as much runway as other jets for taking off!

[@N125AS]

You are welcome !

Wouldn't be carrying much fuel for such a short leg, therefore needs less runway.
