Transwede Airways L1011 Tristar ?

[BraathensSafe1985]

Har lest at Transwede Airways opererte 1011 Tristar ...

Når var dette og fra hvor til hvor ?

Brukte de kun Fokker 100 fra Oslo ?

[Scandinavian]

Blue Scandinavia, started operations in 1996, although the original airline - Transwede - was founded in 1985. This Swedish airline, based in Stockholm-Arlanda, operated one L-1011-1 (SE-DTC) to the Greek holiday resorts, from 1996 until October 1997. The aircraft was handed over to Novair.
Blue Scandinavia changed its name to Britannia Nordic in 1998 and the airline still exists today under the designation of TUIfly Nordic with a fleet of B737NG and B767 aircraft. I am proud to have flown for them in 2008, in my last TriStar mission between Helsinki and Chania in Crete.
Here is the flight plan "stolen" from the cockpit :)

Dog ikke mens de fortsatt het Transwede.

Forøvrig en svært interessant Tristar-gruppe på facebook.

Jeg har tatt feil mange ganger før, men jeg tror ikke -DTC fløy for Novair. Correct me if I'm wrong :-)

Her er link til hva SFF har om SE-DTC:
(Både Transwede Leisure og Novair)

Det kan godt være at du har rett. Ifølge http://airlinerlist.com ble den overført Novair 1/11-97, men såvidt jeg kan se kom den aldri i trafikk for dem; var parkert CPH til en 2-motors ferry til Abu Dhabi 5/5-99 hvorpå den ble hogd hos Gamco.

Men ifølge samme side ble den overført Transwede fra Nordic European 13/8-96 med navneskifte til Blue Scandinavia oktober samme år. Mener jeg har sett et bilde av den med Transwede logo og BLX navn.

I tillegg mener samme side at L-1011-1 c/n 193R-1033 SE-DTD kom til Transwede/Blue Scandinavia fra Air Atlanta 16/8-96 og operert for dem til mai året etter.

Edit: Slått av 1944-årgangen, regner med at SFF har kontrollen.

Jeg tror dette er den mest nøyaktige. Holger er rimelig ivrig.

Hi! I just found this thread via blog stats and tried to understand what you were saying using a translator.

About SE-DTC I have a Novair document which I found on the internet some years ago where they include a L-1011-1:

(this file will be available only for a short period of time)

I believe it can only be SE-DTC, and despite having flown only 5 round trips it seems that it really made part of Novair fleet.

Best regards!

Impressive what you found. Welcome to the forum.

Impressive what you found. Welcome to the forum.

Thanks, jb1. I'm from Portugal and I worked with an ex-Novair L-1011 (SE-DVI) during a year all across the world :)

[jb1]

Great! Muito obrigado in any case.

I think this is the initial Novair AOC certificate (SE-DTC included):
