German flag-carrier Lufthansa’s historic flight foundation Lufthansa Berlin Stiftung is intending to restore a Lockheed L-1649 Starliner to airworthy condition after acquiring three of the type at a bankruptcy auction in the USA.
Two of the aircraft, registered N7316C and N8083H, were originally delivered to Trans World Airlines in 1957-58 and are stored at Auburn-Lewiston Airport in Maine. The third, N974R, was put into service with Lufthansa as a ‘Super Star’ in 1957 and is currently sited at Polk City in Florida.
