There are currently 10 or so ATA L-1011s parked in Roswell.

Delta, Eastern, United, TWA, Pan AM, Rich, Air America, ATA, Arrow, FineAir. Those are the ones that come to mind.

United would have had L1011's if G. Bush wasn't president. Isn't that right WATCHYOURELBLOWS?

Delta aquired most if not all of the UAL/Pan Am L1011-500's They were refered to at PUDs, having been in service with PanAm, UAL and finally DAL. Very nice machines and a pleasure to fly. Don't know where they are anymore but I suspect that some are in Victorville, and others may be in service God knows where. Can't imagine how any third world operators keep this type of airplane in service anymore. DAL operated -500's from Air Canada as well.
 
I believe also if memory serves me correct that a bunch of ex- Pan Am L1011-500's went to the RAF in the UK.

I believe they bought 6 of them when PanAm sold there Pacific division to UAL. Turned them into tankers to supplement the VC10's
