They also had an equally complicated ordering process. I was curious as well.Don't know how many more they had but I just saw proof that at least there was one.I would be pretty amazed if BA pilots flew the plane. By this time BA had made its order for Boeing 767-300s, the first of which joined the fleet in April 1990. Unfortunately, what had looked like a solution to BEA’s problems was once again torpedoed by government policy. I have this model on my study windowsill, it was a one off. The ongoing impacts of the oil crisis and the worldwide economic recession did have an impact on the Tristars though and some of the original routes no longer warranted the resources of the trijet. Caledonian Airways Lockheed L-1011-385-1-14 TriStar 100 Geneva Cointrin (GVA / LSGG) Despite Hawker-Siddeley continuing its involvement in the Airbus A300, using its own funds to design and build the wings, BEA still showed no real interest in the European widebody. In September 1979 a further six Tristar 200s were ordered, with deliveries commencing in late September 1980, at a cost of £127 million. After landing at LAX, the aircraft continued to Auckland, New Zealand. Were these too a part of the NZ agreement?Never argue with idiots. With the Tristar at least using British engines (and ones heavily subsidised by the UK government to boot) it is unsurprising that the big trijet was the selected option. Already British European Airways (BEA) was investigating the replacement for its existing airbus, the Vickers Vanguard. One of the board’s first actions was to place the order for six Tristars, with twelve further options, on September 26, 1972. There it was transferred to BA (still in NZ livery) to fly LAX-LHR with BA flight and cabin crew. It was still a narrowbody but offered six abreast seating, however BEA was unable to place an order as the Government instead joined the European Airbus programme, on December 15, 1967, and funding for the Two-Eleven vanished. At the same time the Tristar fleet adopted the names of varieties of Roses, that is except for the last two Tristar 200s, which gained bird names. They will bring you down to their level, and beat you with experience.Didn't BA have their own DC-10s as well? Doesn’t make much sense to do typeratings for one route, not to mention I can’t imagine any pilots volunteering to literally fly to the same city four times a month for years. The first six Tristar 1s had all arrived by April 1975 but a further three were converted from options and joined the fleet between January 23, 1976 and February 12, 1977. Let’s get serious. Information taken from "British Airways, Its History, Aircraft and Liveries" I would be pretty amazed if BA pilots flew the plane. Part 1: China's Airlines Industry Blossoms 1984-2002 At the time we were used to only seeing Tridents & VC10s. The word you’re looking for is CODESHARE.Air New Zealand Dc-10-30's provided BA with a long range smaller than 747 airplane. If I remember cerrectly the crew was Air New Zealand.I flew an Air New Zealand DC-10 in August 1988 from LHR to MIA on a BA flight. Into the Landor era these names would be switched for those of Bays but by this time much of the fleet was with its subsidiary British Airtours.
