Stargazer carrying a Pegasus XL  rocket over the Atlantic

Stargazer is a Lockheed L-1011 TriStar built in 1974, that was modified in 1994 for use by Orbital Sciences (now part of Northrop Grumman) as a mother ship launch pad for the Pegasus launch vehicle. As of October 2022, 45 rockets (containing nearly 100 satellites) have been launched from it, using the Pegasus-H and Pegasus-XL configurations. As of 2019, Stargazer was the only L-1011 airframe still airworthy.

i had to know more abt her (L-1011) she’s beautiful and a very cool aircraft she’s a trijet so that means she has 3 jet engines!!

In the second pic the aircraft that is accompanying it is the F-86 Sabre :^]

and in the last pic it’s flying with an f-18; this l-1011 is named stargazer and it was modified specifically to be a launchpad for rockets! it has fired over 45 “pegasus” rockets and is the only l-1011 in service today!

Meet Oli!

My latest obsession with airplane dragons has led to me creating another character; Oli, an(other) airplane dragon! Their engine configuration is based off the L-1011 Tristar, which I have an unexplainable obsession with.

ol Garry from the airport also gave me this Eastern Airlines L-1011 training manual for the Auxiliary Power Unit. :3

Idk if there's much anyone would be interested in it (i might post some schematics I find interesting tho), but it's definitely helping me in my turbine electrical portion in class rn. c:
