Eastern Airlines L-1011 Whisperliner Resale Ad

An unusual ad — an airline selling its own airplanes to other airlines. Eastern offered some of its L-1011 Whisperliners at 'low, economical prices,' backed by an unexpected sales pitch: with over 325,000 hours of L-1011 operating time, Eastern's people knew these planes better than anyone, and would help you integrate them into your own fleet.

Provenance & Condition

This is an original print advertisement, carefully removed from an authentic January 9, 1978 issue of Aviation Week — not a reproduction. 48 years old, with the paper tone and character of a genuine press run. Approximate size 8.5" x 11".

What's Included

Every order ships with bonus clippings from the same issue and a curated report of what was making aerospace news that week — a snapshot of the world this ad first appeared in.
