Love KLM MD-11’s!
Too bad their gone. I got to fly on one during vacation from EHAM (Amsterdam) to HECA (Cairo). Unfortunately, I had to fly back to Amsterdam on a Transavia 737, horrible flight.

MD-11 is a thing of beauty.

Not as beautiful as many others, but I still love the airplane.

@Snelweg_A15 Well, for starters when I booked that trip my itinerary had a KLM MD-11 for to and from Amsterdam to Cairo and back. Much to all the passengers surprise a little 737 shows up. Let me clarify the flight to Cairo was a KLM MD-11 and returning a Transavia 737.
Horrible flight due to the following:

  1. Full flight
  2. Delayed by 3 hours
  3. Bad weather which caused our flight to circumnavigate through Eastern Europe instead of flying more on a direct path to Amsterdam.
  4. 737 Transavia

Nothing against Transavia.

I should add that the flight crew were great given the situation.
Mind you, I was transferring through EHAM to catch a flight later that day for KLAX on a KLM 747.

I like DC-10, look like 747 had nearly same as Dc-10 http://www.airsafe.com/events/models/rate_mod.htm

Look at Concorde stats, one crash and it’s changed its history.

That’s because it flew so few people. Frames only had 14,000 flight hours when they were retired IIRC. They could’ve flown on for far longer

i wished at least one passenger airline would still operate the md-11 or DC10
