Tragic L-10

I flew the actual EAL L-10 (Lockheed Tristar) on the northbound

back into the south FL swamp and became the subject of a film

Years later I flew many flights on refurbed EAL L-10s that

Fawcett flew MIA to Lima w/ 3 classes (fortunately in 1st)

ALWAYS preferred the DC-10s (my alltime favorite heavy)
