First flew as N31001 then reregistered as N1031L in 1971. Delivered to Eastern Air Lines as N301EA in 1973. To Garuda Indonesian Airways then to Air America in 1989 then to Faucett as OB-1455 in 1991. Returned to the lessor as N301EA in 1993 and stored at Miami. Scrapped in 1998.

Re-registered as N302EA in early 1973, then as N781DL in June 1991. Written off in 1995 due to sudden decompression at 33000 feet on 24 September 1995, the cost of repairs being deemed to be uneconomic. (Aviocar XT.12-1 can be seen in the background with a drooping right wing, caused when the main spar failed as the result of a heavy landing after a display flight earlier that day.)

When Total Air declared bankrupcy in 1986 it was re-launched as Air America in Nov 86 retaining the same colours as the former Total Air. Air America declared bankruptcy in 1990 and was liquidated. In Dec 91 this aircraft, which was owned by International Air Lease, went on lease to Faucett-Aero Peru as OB-1455. It returned to IAL Mar 93 as N301EA and was scrapped at MIA in Mar 98.

last served as OB-1455 with Aero Peru, but reverted to its old reg for transit to its final destination in 1994. Eventually scrapped in 1998.

Ex Eastern Airlines N301EA it was sold to Air America in 1987. It was leased to Faucett-Aero Peru as OB-1455 in 1991 and finally scrapped at Miami in 1994.

Eastern's first 1011 on short final for 9L at MIA.

This was the largest aircraft that had visited Castle Donington at that time, taken there to be shown to the Rolls Royce employees that had developed the RB211 engine that powered the aircraft. Same registration N301EA later used on c/n 1002, following delivery in March 1973. This aircraft c/n 1003 then became N302EA. Taken on an old folding roll film camera and scanned from a 6 x 9 cm negative which was probably developed by me in print developer!
