Back in the days, when I was the D.C.-10 Engineering Manager at NWA, we worked with Fed Ex to possibly convert our old birds to the MD-10. it never came to fruition. FX did a nice job on the D.C.-10-10s.
Some temperatures are in Celsius and others are in that weird Fahrenheit nonsense that only the US uses! That’s so confusing!😮 when you are monitoring the various pages and you’re having to convert between the 2 doesn’t that up the workload?😅
Don’t know why more cargo operators aren’t going for MD-10’s since 767 isn’t really available on the second hand market. The conversion program ended in 2008 not that long ago

Ever been to the NWA history museum in Minnesota?
Great video! Very informative. Love it when you see the people who look after all this gear, make it look easy!
WOOOW, I´m really in love with the MD10/11!! Thanks for this amazing video!!
This airplane now stored.
I did capture LAST EVER FEDEX MD-10-10F flight to Victorville on 6-4-21 ,N562FE.
On RUclips.
He didn't get the green box for the outboard ailerons because the flap/slat were at zero.
Man, you know your stuff! Thank you!
Watching this on Halloween 2021
MD 11 was another upgrade from DC10
Damn I’m used to the Starter being where the fuel cutoff switches are
you warm up the engine beause you need a certain oil temperature to set the correct level ?
Nice video .
Isn't a dry engine run sufficient to get accurate engine oil readings ?
Awesomeness
This is not a startup, but it's a shutdown!
(Aircraft : McDonnell Douglas MD-10F)
yOU don't get outboard ailerons unless you extend the slats.
great job on your vid capt i loved the old dc10 as well as the l-1011 miss that old girl

2016?!??!?!?!?!
Always amazes me that maintenance personnel do not use the same procedures that are mandated for the pilots.

No one on ground headset?
Engine starts usually had a ground spotter. This start was on a empty ramp which was cleared before proceeding.
Md11f
MD11 Freighter - Yes
MD-10F (DC-10 conversion) - not a MD11
How you gone try to tell this man SITTING IN THE PLANE RUNNING IT what type of plane is is. Dumbass.
