Leased from TAP Air Portugal. Later SE-DVF, CS-TMR and N91011

Together with G-BDXO. CS-TMR was delivered to TAP in March 1983 as CS-TEC. Leased to TAAG between January 1990 - July 1997. To Novair in October 1997 as SE-DVF. To Air Luxor in April 2000 as CS-TMR. Leased to Yestours between May 2000 - July 2003. To Luzair in January 2004. After a rejected take-off at Amsterdam on July 6, 2004, (see the other photos in the DB), the aircraft was stored at Amsterdam until January 7, 2007. Then it was ferried to Victorville on August 18, 2007. To the Tristar History and Preservation in February 2014 as N91011.

Ex CS-TEC, registered 20th Oct 1997 and to CS-TMR 15th Apr 2000

Clearing rw23 after arriving from Oporto with the Boavista football team and supporters. They were playing Celtic in the UEFA cup semi-final a couple of days later.

This Tristar brought in the Boavista Football team to play Celtic in the UEFA Cup and this was it parked remote at Glasgow for 2 days.

Photo 1 of 2 (see here). This Tristar suffered a compressor stall in engine #1 during the take-off run for a Dutch Caribbean Airlines Amsterdam-Curaçao flight. The scene here is a few seconds later, showing the subsequent high-energy Rejected Take-Off (RTO) on rwy 24, causing significant damage to the landing gear. The aircraft was stored for repairs, but a second attempt three weeks later saw a repeat of the problem. It then remained stored at Schiphol for three years, until ferried to Lissabon on 20 July 2007, and on to Victorville, CA a month later for continued storage. In Jan 2014 it was acquired by TriStar History and Preservation Inc. and reregd to N91011, then sold to Orbital Sciences Corp. in April 2018.

Photo 2 of 2 (see here). This was the situation on runway 24 at Schiphol, 25 minutes after this former Air Portugal TriStar (ex CS-TEC, SE-DVF) executed a high-energy rejected Take-Off following an compressor stall in the #1 engine (see other photo). This RTO caused major damage to the landing gear, which kept it from vacating the runway. It blocked Schiphol's most-used runway for many hours. It would be three years before the aircraft would finally leave the airport. Following many years of continued storage at Vacaville, CA it was registered to TriStar History and Preservation Inc. as N91011 in Feb 2014, then to Orbital Sciences Corp. in April 2018. Apologies for the heat haze in this distant shot.
