The developer iniBuilds has shared a round of Instagram stories today, teasing a new aircraft in development, appearing to be the Lockheed L-1011 TriStar. The team went to the Saqer Al-Jazirah Royal Air Force Museum in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The first Instagram story shows a general view of the Saudi Arabian Air Force Museum. The second story then shows a detail on one specific aircraft from the front, with a description mentioning that the aircraft in question is in development for 2025. However, with its specific paint scheme, Reddit users were easily able to determine that the aircraft the iniBuilds team is talking about is the Lockheed L-1011 TriStar.
The L-1011 TriStar shown in the Instagram Story is a retired Saudia aircraft, with the HZ-AHP registration. The official announcement is yet to be made. However, it might be really close, and our assumption is that it might be officially announced during the Christmas period, as iniBuilds usually tends to announce new projects around that time.
You can also read more about iniBuilds in the recent article about their developer stream, disclosing information about aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
