This model is crafted with precision to match real-world scale. The model boasts dynamic features such as spinning turbines, retractable and extendible landing gear, hinged landing gear doors, a movable rudder, elevators, ailerons, inboard and outboard flaps that can be animated for realistic movement. It's fully textured and includes a wealth of exterior details to make it an incredibly immersive model. This model has been thoroughly revised and updated (nearly rebuilt from scratch) to deliver unparalleled accuracy compared to our original 2005 3D creation. The L-1011 model is designed with animation and video production in mind, making it an ideal choice for bringing airport scenes to life as either a dynamic or static element. It can also be easily adapted for use in various flight simulation programs. The Lockheed L-1011 was engineered to fill the gap between medium-haul airliners and the largest heavy jet airliners. It directly competed with the DC-10, offering air carriers a versatile option for flights across continental routes, the western hemisphere, Europe, and Asia. Over its extended service life, starting in the early 1970s, hundreds of airlines utilized the L-1011 extensively. However, the model faced challenges related to RR engine availability and ongoing maintenance issues. Despite these hurdles, the L-1011 boasted a superior safety record compared to the DC-10.
