Where would one buy an L1011?

It looks like all the good planes are no longer for sale? It was one of the most technological superior planes of the time, and my guess is it was supressed by the other manufacturers

The Air Force literally has a desert graveyard full of B-52's to pull parts or in some cases entire airframes out of along with the aerospace industry to support those planes.

The private Airline industry has no such reserve of aircraft or that scale of industry support.

Also the B-52's and even the B-1B's are starting to reach the end of their flyable lifespans.
