Don't normally comment on these, but I agree that it's a great picture.
BTW, I don't think TWA was that bad - until they got bought by "Absolutely Awful".

If anybody could give my old bird a new lease of life, I'd be very grateful.

Yes a cracking picture and the best livery the L1011 it wore in TWA colours, my favourite was always the original Air Canada like the early Airfix kit, I gather this is the defunct Vistaliners one?

No Tony, the little fin in front of the tail engine inlet gives it away.....Vistaliners only made one -100 model.tonymadge wrote:I gather this is the defunct Vistaliners one?
This photoreal paint is for the stupendously beautiful Aerosim model. (N31023 is a Tristar 50)
Thankyou for the kind comments chaps. CHEERS
