Address: The lot is located on the mauka side of Kamehameha Hwy just north of the He'eia Kea Boat Harbor in Kane'ohe.
Notes: The rest of the fuselage is stored at Dillingham Airfield.
The fuselage prop is a real Lockheed L-1011 TriStar, although Flight 815 is a Boeing 777 in the Lost storyline. This Lockheed model is a widebody passenger jet manufactured between 1968 and 1984.
Before being used on Lost, this particular aircraft was originally Eastern Airline's N308EA, and was the ninth L-1011 built overall (production number 1009), and it first flew on June 12, 1972. It was later mothballed in a Mojave Desert storage area until 1991, when it was purchased by Delta Airlines, who re-registered it and flew it for six and a half years as N783DL. The plane was then stored at Victorville, then later in the Mojave Desert, where it was purchased by Aviation Warehouse, an aviation props company specializing in products for television and film.
