Delta did indeed have service to Frankfurt from MCO for five years following the Pan-Am acquisition. They ran it from November 1, 1991 (the day that Delta took over the Pan-Am European Routes), to sometime after the summer of 1996, when they shut down the Frankfurt hub. The hub was gone in the summer of 1997, and so was the MCO-FRA flight.

I think the flight was with an L1011 during most, if not all of its run.
