Interesting facticle: The L-1011 had a system called Direct Lift Control, which meant the plane could change its descent rate whilst on the glide slope using only the spoilers, rather than changing pitch and thrust setting. It was supposed to make for a smoother approach although not usable if the wind was anything more than light.
Second facticle: The first aircraft in commercial service that had autoland capability was the Hawker Siddley Tristar.
Was a very enjoyable plane to fly on, I flew a couple of times on it across the Atlantic.
Do you mean the Trident?
@@gabrielk9115 Yes, Trident. Thank you, I blame beer. 😂
"Lightning coming out of that one."
Hey dude, Thank you for that information. That’s why I love TH-cam! 😂❤

1:35 this feature was so important Swiss had to say it twice XD
yeeeeee
Looking for someone who noticed lol
Lol, I really thought I replayed it 😂
@@raramai6154same
My grandpa used to work on L-1011s back in the day for TWA I sadly never had the chance to talk to him about it as he passed awhile ago however I’ve seen the pictures and they are pretty interesting airplanes
r.i.p for your grandpa man. he might be gone. but not gone in your head.
hope he is enjoying his new life with god

@@alunesh12345 bruh i was tryna pay respects to his father
Was he pilot or an engineer or..?
Love the L1011. My favourite aircraft. And of course my local airport. So glad you uploaded this video. Thank you. I was wondering when you would do a L1011 Flight. 🙏 ✈️✈️✈️
I LOOOOOOOOOVE THE GALLEY LOUNGE THING
The Md-11 is better

L-1011 is defiantly one of my favorite tri-jets every created. Glad to see you made a video on it :)
This is actually the first plane I remember flying to holidays as a child. With LTU from Düsseldorf to Punta Cana.
Still my favorite

BRO YOU ARE LUCKY!!
Imagine making the autopilot so good, it created an entire company (Autopilots of Airbus, for people who don't know)

So dressed as a pilot with a 70s haircut?
Interesting fact, in the 1970s the Soviets tried to buy a licence to produce the L-10-11 which might have helped save the project, but the deal was vetoed by the US government

@@alunesh12345 Technically speaking the Boeing 777 is the Jesus plane, so …
@@alunesh12345Have you experienced hell?
I like how he said it wasn’t favorable. The L-1011 was too advanced for its time and maintenance heavy. It also lacked engine alternatives to the RB211. I agree, it’s sad that it wasn’t a successful plane. However, it did contribute a ton to modern aircraft.
it was also a financial failure because of the engine delays due to inital problems with the RB211
who else noticed at 1:27 - 1:49 he says the exact same thing twice?
yes
yup
That was an error in the editing
Eastern airlines used a lot of these. I got to fly on them as a kid in the 70s-80s. Beautiful
TWA flew a ton of them as well. Delta had a good number too.
1:25 - 1:48 you will experience deja vu.
1:26 1:38 same clip
The L1011 is my favorite 70s plane, But it hurts that failure, It's impressive how an aircraft from that era could be so advanced, but being the direct competition of the DC 10 which was totally a success, I can't do anything. I think the L1011 is an underrated plane.
It was a victim of extremely poor management at Lockheed. Had they controlled the budget overruns and delivered it on schedule the DC10 never would have got the better of it.
@@FallacyAsPraxis yes exact
ye it is very underrated. only if it released before the dc 10, it would have been a successful aircraft for lockheed
But the dc10 also met a similar demise due to a faulty cargo door
I love the L-1011, very underrated aircraft!
One of my favorite trijets......thanks for making a vid about it
ye
If I remember correctly one of the things that set the L1011 behind the DC10 in sales was that Rolls Royce was in dire financial straits and fell behind schedule developing the engines. Since the whole tail concept was designed around the RB211, no off-the-shelf engine would fit, so Lockheed had no choice but to wait for the RB211 to be ready.
Swiss: "Yes everyone! welcome back on the L-1011 over here."
also Swiss: *has never made us a L-1011 video*
Lockheed Martin is crazy sometimes. It’s like:
“Check out this really cool plane”
“How tf did you do that?”
“You’ll figure it out in like, 10 or 15 years”
0:02 wow that’s so crazy
Hey, guys! Welcome to another Swiss001 video...
Later the video: And yeah guys, now I will see you all tomorrow as always goodnight.
Goodnight Swiss001 : )
BETTER
@@jthboy2315 yep
The most automated plane in the world:)))
Leave that to the md-11
Leave that to the Airbus a350
@@slavtrooper3851 tru but I mean from the same era
@@britishairways744 well md-11 is after the L-1011 TriStar
@@slavtrooper3851 not by a long shot
Normal Swiss001: Hey guys, welcome to another video
Swiss001 here: Hey guys, welcome to the flight simulator
Diese Voicecracks waren echt hart
That vocal crack 😂
lol the bit at 1:26 is repeated (at 1:38)
Keep the tri-jets coming!!
DC9 vs L1011 vs MD11 video, maybe?
Let’s not forget about the 727 😉
Swiss001 close to 1 million subscribers
Did anyone realize that the same clip was repeated twice at 1:23 to 1:48
anyone catch the sneaky repeat??
1:26 to 1:48 lol perfect loop 🤣🤣🤣🤣
L1011: I can land myself!
FBW A32NX: What did you say?
Love the vids man 🙌🔥❤
Cooles Video
01:30 ?? Loop
me: **turns on autoland**
the autopilot: **kills the engines**
3:06 great TRAINED PASSANGERS
1 hour and already 5.5k views. swiss is now one of the legends
At 1:37 I experienced deja vu .
Another interesting plane that could do that in the same era was the Hawker Siddeley Trident, though i still haven't learned how to auto land it on FS2004 lol
Good Morning Nick
Swiss: This plane was loved by the pilots who flew it also the passengers who flew it.
Me: I dont feel safe with Swiss001 anymore...
You were talking smack about Lockheed airliners, but you completely omitted the Lockheed L-749 Constellation and L-1049 Super Constellation. Those two planes were also airliners, and they were really good, so good in fact, that one was modified to be an airborne command post before the “doomsday plane”
Also, being objectively some of the most beautiful aircraft in history.
1:27 nice editing
My favorite L-1011 livery is Eastern lol
1:27 🔁 it repeats
Mate we all know you cracked it. No shame in it fr
it's abandonware no one cares
yes,no,yes
At 1:27 he repeats himself
Did he just said the dialogue 1:40 twice or am I the only one ?
Sheesh pro driv
We just didn't deserve the L-1011
indeed
Ryanair: ill take your entire stock
1:27 did you say that 2 times?
It's impossible not to love the L1011
Very beautiful plane in my opinion
is it me or swiss001 lagged on that saint barths landing
At 1:27 and 1:38 he repeated the same sentence
The Hawker Siddeley Trident had autoland before anybody else.
Maiden flight: January 9, 1962.
Swiss you should do a video on the L-188 Electra explaining why it’s miserable please
Voice crack001
when the l 1011 lands, the suspension in the landing gear very bouncy till the fact tht i think when the l 1011 does hard landing, it's better than butter
TAP Air Portugal loved using this plane back in the day
A interesting plane
Delta Airlines Flight 191 was a Lockheed L1011.
I dont know, i just wanted to say it.
Maybe i am wrong and i am dumb.
you're not
how do you get the little screen that says: butter. hard landing. great landing and wasted?
“When the pliot cannot see the runway, the L1011 can land itself”
IIRC the L1011 was outsold by the DC10 in part because of production delays.
The L-1011 was way ahead of its time for the 1970s
Did he say that "Lockheed had never done a successful airliner before" ... ??? Lockheed (Connie) Constellation: hold my beer .......
My favorite passenger jet
1:39 Deja Vu 001
The L1011 wasn't the first plane to land itself, you should look at the Hawker Trident family
Swiss almost has 600k subs 🥳
Yow one more again 600k subs
Me seeing old spice ads: NOBODY SWEATS LIKE A WATERFALL
7:52 Could I have your old pc if I'm being honest
Imagine this plane that is so advanced, it almost bankrupted a massive company
does anyone know what the verticle speed add on swiss has is called?
hello. is there a a way i could secure a copy? I'm willing ti buy it from you. Please advise. Thx
My dad flew this plane with delta as a kid from Frankfurt to Boston I think

Like the MD11 And The DC-10 Cuz the engine on the tail looks more natural with the still round engine on the tail while the L1011 engine on the tail looks weird and not at the same time (late comment bruh)
1:30 - I had to do a double take, didn't expect a repeat of the same section of video. Thought I hit a button causing it to repeat.
x-plane 12 or MSFS 2020?
"also by the passengers who flew it
1:25 to 1:48 what happened there bro? editing mistake?
I’m eating oatmeal
DC10 = dally crash 10
Where did you get this
What airport was the last simulated landing?
The back engine has I slide for the kids!
FedEx 705: Am I a joke to you?
In first glance I thought it was a MD11😅
@Swiss001 Yeeeeeeeess
could you do a review video in tfs
1:37 lol why did Swiss001 repeated his edit!?!
Mmmm trijets
L1011 autopilot: lands hard
ryanair: *we need a new plane*
Lol
They will buy MORE 737 MAX 7 S
No man they want to buy a310-20 have you not heard the news
Hey swiss, just the video I wanted to see and I'm currently flying it in xplane as well. The problem is that I kept my copy I bought, but I deleted my pdf manual for ot by mistake. If you have a copy of the instruction manual for the plane, unfortunately it's not for sale anymore on the org- can u post a link to your Dropbox or Google so I can get it please? Thank you in advance! I need to reread it to refresh my memory 😩
I’d like a copy of the plane if that’s something you’re willing to share? 🤞🏼
You can use phone in L 1011? Using airplane mode or not or its not invented (the mode)yet?
phones did not exist then
