It's amazing that this is 1 of 2 Tristars built with a lower deck lounge and in-built airstair (Both were originally sold to PSA Airlines), and that it's currently the only one of its kind that still exists today.
FELEOC Yes, this flying hospital was designed to fly to poorer countries without modern airport services. You can board the aircraft through the air stairs. www.mercyairlift.org/flyinghospital/airplane.html

I flew the TriStar once, from Atlanta to Miami- what a flight. Like no other plane, quiet and absolutely HUGE inside! Damn, I miss that plane.
2:13 Manual airstairs 😁😉
Nice upload, I have been wondering about this Tristar recently.
I just noticed that landing gear is on the wings on this line.
If there's no facility such airstair/jetbridge, can it be used for boarding the passengers?
