MD-11 - The last Trijet says good bye
The McDonnell Douglas MD-11 leaves the fleet of Lufthansa Cargo after beeing the cargo workhorse for the past 23 years. It was a privelege to get the chance to fly this awesome aircraft for the last three years. Time for me to review the most beautiful pictures that I was able to take during my time on the Diva. Enjoy!

    Kind of a bummer that MD11 has left Europe for good, but I’m also glad to hear that some of the former fleet will join UPS. And the last one to leave Lufthansa, former D-ALCC, will join Western Global Airlines to continue its duty

    The MD 11 is such a beautiful aircraft. Nothing compares to it. No other aircraft is quite like it. As a Flight Dispatcher knowing I won’t get to see a beauty like that again is sad. The MD11 with the engine number 2 on the vertical stabilizer is so unique. Farewell MD11. Du wirst für immer in Erinnerung bleiben.

  • @donaldthomas7070
    @donaldthomas7070 2 года назад

    Unfortunately, the plane never performed up to the fuel-consumption & range specifications expected by airlines, so was quickly relegated to cargo service if used at all. Several early purchase orders were canceled before many planes had even been built.

    Love the shots going through the cloud layers, that always gets my attention when I'm on a flight in any type of plane. I grew up just north of the Long Beach (California) MD factory where planes were made, we used to go down to the neighboring Long Beach airport and watch the planes take off and land from the open 'skydeck' outside the airport's 2nd floor restaurant. The MD-11 was in production after I moved, but still remember the DC-10 and the smaller two-engine planes (cant recall the model numbers!). Sadly I never got to fly on an MD-11.

    for some reason if i see the md11, it remind me my childhood. maybe because i saw them many times. no idea. But the MD11 and the BOEING 747-400 canl never ever be replaced, by a other plane. Thanks for this share!

  • @teasingbrown75

    No other plane is more imposing and noisier than the MD 11. No other plane has a more beautiful take-off climb than the MD 11. No other plane will leave as beautiful memories as the MD 11. I've flown in an A350-900 but I'd trade it for 20 minutes on an MD 11. It's for an aviation icon in every way. It is the favorite in my heart and will be missed a lot. Goodbye dear and beloved MD 11!

      Sir I have a question. Why cant the plane be reproduced with much more fuel efficient engines and most modern avionics?. I heard that aircrafts such as MD-11 have less fuel efficiency. So replacing the engine with advanced would help. Right?. If so why the company stop producing classic such as MD-11?.Thanks

    • @lukeheffner2658
      @lukeheffner2658 2 года назад

      @@vivekpilot It's not that easy just to reproduce an aircraft. Beside the fact, that it will be handled like a new aircraft regarding certification (which means a lot of money) It's not just that there are new engines and new avionic nowdays, but a much better aerodynamic due to new modern material. Sadly, the third engine also means much more cost (beside fuel also maintanace of course) and is not needed anymore due to ETOPS and very reliable engines.

      @@lukeheffner2658 Thanks for your reply. By the way my doubt was about retaining the beautiful structure with composite materials like those used in B-787 dreamliner. I still desperately wish classics like MD-11,Concorde,F-4 Phantom, F-14,Tristar-1011,Mig-21..etc etc may reborn with contemporary technology retaining those beautiful structure..!! I know there are hurdles but still my mind want it to happen..!! Thank you very much for your reply sir..!!🙏🏼🙏🏼

    Hatte 2014 BU (bestanden) und war dann lange in der Warteschleife, wegen neuer Konzerntarifverträge. Habe den Weg bei der LH nie wieder aufgenommen. Seitdem stolpere ich hin und wieder über dieses Video, um zu sehen, was ich vielleicht hätte haben können. Die momentane Zeit gibt mir das erste mal das Gefühl, dass es sogar ein bisschen Glück war, nicht zur LH gegangen zu sein. Nichts desto trotz bin ich schon neidisch auf euren Beruf. Ich hoffe, ihr steht die gegenwärtige Krise bestmöglich durch.
