The L-1011 simulator was one of - if not THE - only TriStar device still certified. Up until 2008 or so, this trainer was used almost on a daily basis by the now-defunct ATA. Pretty impressive that this device was maintained for as long as it was, considering Delta retired the L-1011 over a decade ago.
That would be why @DeltaAssist never responded to my tweet:
Hey @deltaassist, you have a L-1011 sim in Atlanta but nobody flies those anymore. Can I try it some time?
