Lockheed L-1011 TriStar Hawaiian Airlines PlaneTag

The Lockheed L-1011 TriStar, known affectionately as “El Ten Eleven”, joined the Hawaiian fleet in 1985, opening up service to West Coast gateway cities and putting the airline in direct competition with the major US carriers for the first time in its history. This particular L-1011 began its journey as N702DA, in service for Delta Air Lines from October 25, 1973. On December 15, 1973, it flew Delta’s first revenue L-1011 flight from Atlanta to Philadelphia with 39 passengers aboard. It served with Delta until 1984 then went to Total Air as N702TT for two years. She then went to Air America from 1986 through 1987, changing registration once again to EI-BTN. She spent her final years in the Hawaiian Airlines fleet before retiring. She was scrapped at Mojave Air and Space Port. Each PlaneTag has been handcrafted to capture the striking colors of the Hawaiian Airlines livery. Caution: Not recommended for children under 8 years of age.
