This 1970 color film by Lockheed is about food service testing on a mockup Lockheed L-1011 TriStar.

The empty passenger section is shown. The name pins are shown for stewardesses from Air Canada, Delta, Eastern Airlines, and TWA (:18-1:33). The program control room to watch the test in has closed circuit television sets and a room of executives watch on television monitors. The videotape equipment is shown (1:34-1:52). The galley door opens and food carts are loaded in. An elevator is used to move the food carts to the upper level. Coffee pots are stored into small wall cabinets (2:27-3:55).

A first-class passenger tray full of food served on linen with china is shown, including filet mignon and a shrimp salad. A stewardess offers coffee refills. Another refills wine (12:08-15:52).
