The airplane on Lost is a scrapped Delta L1011.
Same kind of plane that crashed at DFW 20 years ago in similar conditions.
No wonder they crashed! They should have bought a new one, or considered leasing...
Just the middle of it...[g]
I read a story the other day of how the producers selected the fuselage of the L1011 from the graveyard at Mojave and had it shipped to Hawaii for filming...
Surviving passenger OLIVIER DUBOS (OH-LEEV-YAY DOO-BO) said there were no cabin lights on the plane for a minute before landing, but his English was a bit spotty, and he might have meant something else.
