0:11 AirFrance CONCORD on the background. Ahh those good old days.
i love how airports back in those days were dominated by MD-11’s and 747 classics. But now they’re a rare sight.
Yeah now we just got now A bunch of 737’s and dreamliners
My company operates only 747 and MD11s. They make any mechanic and pilot today a damn good one. They're so fuckin hard to work on and parts are rare are harder to come by
There were Concorde's, too.
MD-11s are still in use. Go to Memphis, FedEx has a huge fleet. They we're never a good passenger jet.
When ETOPS 180 came in, that was the beginning of the end of the tris and quads
0:58, Varig, MD-11 and Twin Towers😕
Two Amazing things we lost and will be missed forever
Ohhhhh!!!,Yesssss!!!.Two of the most admired icons on Earth,gone for ever!!!. What a pity!!!!.I was at The Twin Towers shopping in the lobby,just 2 weeks before that horrible 9-11 terrorist attack.But nevere could fly,in a MD-11. :-( !!.
I wish I was born and was an adult when during the 2000s in NY
Swissair...
3 things varig, MD-11, and twin towers
I worked for AA in 1974 or so. My favorite ride was the DC-10. At that time, AA had a camera that looked out the front, so you could watch on big TV screens the take-offs and landings almost like you were a pilot. Lots of fun!
Richard Shelton Unfortunately the passengers on AA 191 had that camera too.
When that DC-10 crashed after losing an engine on takeoff at O'Hare. The passengers could see their fate. That was the end of the "video takeoff" feature...
Alex Lopez a Mexican airline called Interjet still does that and it’s pretty cool but unnerving to see how much the plane is actually moving
They had those cameras on their 747s as well didn't they?
As a current MD11 Capt for UPS, I can attest it’s a great airplane to fly! Automated system controllers and nice flying characteristics make it a joy to fly!
A B always heard the DC-10 and MD-11 referred to as “gentleman’s aircraft” due to how nice it was to fly
I have hundreds of hours on an MD-11 sim. the LSAS system made the handling feel very smooth, like an Airbus or 787 fly by wire. good times.
CaptainSazzman as an Aircraft Mechanic for UPS I completely disagree with you! Haha
@@adashiell1 compared to the jets like the 767 or 747, the MD11 handling feels nicer
MD11 is just so awesome along with the MD80
Twin Towers in the background, may all that were lost on that day find peace..
Frankie Chileman Nice gesture Frankie. Such a sad day for colleagues, family and friends.
I recall flying out of Newark in the late eighties, seeing the top hundred feet or so standing above the low cloud cover has the sun rose behind them. Two perfect stainless steel cubes floating on a bed of clouds. That's something I will always remember and Never Forget.
Timestamp 1:05.
Amen!
Had the pleasure of flying on a Finnair MD-11 to Helsinki back in 2004. Great ride.
Erick Figueroa me too dude, JFK to Helsinki
0:58 I miss those twins :(
So sad 😔
Never Forgive
me too
It was a different era.
And the best airline of the world, Varig.
I'm happy to see brazilian aircrafts on this channel. VARIG and VASP. Thanks JP.
Very welcome Renato!
@@justplanes a Vasp plane with a test registration
Renato Peleskei representatividade karolho
The Varig with the Tetra livery, just magnificent
VARIG used to have the most beautiful livery with the compass on its tail
Compass rose, not "compass [sic]".
Keep Calm and love❤ the MD-11😍
Still amazes me to this day something so big gets into the air and stays there. I love watching these videos.
The Shamrock MD-11 looked amazing
This a/c was on lease for 3 years to Aer Lingus from World Airways, reg N272WA
Thanks, @@edpatterson2135.
@@edpatterson2135 it wasnt 3 years actually they leased it for 3 months
I miss the md-11

My favorite aircraft. MD-11 has the most awesome startup sound. Was a thrill to push them back on the ramp in its time. Its a shame they disappeared other than cargo.
As far as I know the MD-11 wasn't built in high numbers, but the variety of airlines that operated the type was really amazing. Great video of these operations!
Only 200 built
Beautiful MD-11 at its best
The Lufthansa Cargo in this video is still operating for them :)
Wow
But Lufthansa is looking to retire them sadly😩😩😩
Carlos yes maybe in the next 5 years but to be honest I like the 777 even more because of its ge90s
FedEx and UPS won't be retiring them for a looong time.
At timestamp 4:43, the tail number/registration can be seen D-ALCB OR D-ALCE.
It is hard for me to definitively identify the last character.
One of my favorite flights was on an Aer Lingus MD-11 (leased from World Airways) from SNN to JFK in September 2001.
Those were the days, a lot better than the modern aircraft on my opinion..
Why ?
@@peterroe8800 More variation and noisier.
Miss these tri-jets
Great video. Airports back those days were so much fun. Full of MD-11 and 747.
So beautiful yet short loved. The MD-11 was behind of its time.
4:05 that touchdown though
My First Love. The Mighty DC-10.
That VASP MD-11 was the first widebody I ever rode.
Circa '92 I flew LA to Sao Paulo in brand new VASP. My first plane ride. When I returned from Brazil, I got my pilots license : )
It'll always be the DC-10 in my memory.....great bird !
Beautiful planes, I remember when the last batch came out in the 90's from Long Beach CA.
Miss MD-11 and -10
Varig was very powerfull. The most beautifull livery, in the most beautifull plane. VARIG, VARIG, VARIG!
I loved both the MD 11 and the L1011. Especially when the engine on top started to reve up at take off. That low drowning sound would put me to sleep every time.
Brings back memories of my very first flight on a Philippine Airlines Mc Donnel Douglas DC-10 from Manila to Dhahran via Dubai, June 25, 1991.
That Aer Lingus MD-11 ❤️
Stunning video!
Changed my mind on the DC 10/ MD 11. Beautiful bird after all.♥️ Have a blessed Easter you all.
I flew with these beauties when I was a child. Lovely memories. Thanks for this video !
MD-11😍😍😍😍😍
I miss the time when I took MD-11 to Helsinki and Amsterdam.
Truly miss those days.The MD-11 is a great airliner and I enjoyed every flight on it.Landing in Hongkong Kai Tak is still vivid in my mind...felt like sitting in a fighter jet
I used to work on the DC10 series & the MD11 series, miss them!
varig and air lingus my favorites on video.
So satisfying seeing these beautiful old birds, such magnificent beasts! The pitch attitude on take off & landing is so cool, and that Finnair machine absolutely aced the landing in what was notoriously on of the "tougher" jets to handle.
Sooo miss that sound, retirement sucks!!!
THANKS
That VARIG md11 at 1:40 is just perfect ❤
Worked for Quantem Aviation (Subcontractor for UPS that would do all the ground work at KSLC) and these things would be delayed more than any other plane due to mechanical problems. Also suck to work in because the cargo bay AC never worked when loading or unloading. It felt like a blessing when I got transferred to the A300-600
I know this video mainly focuses on MD11 but the first minute of this video is amazing with shots of The Concorde and the original WTC in the background Classic!!!
0:58 The Twin Towers!!
One of my favorite wide-body jet
0:12, love the Concorde in the background!
A look into what would have been had McDonnell Douglas’ Execs not sold out and taken Boeing’s money.
An Avianca MD'-11 :), I wish it had that beautiful red and white 70s and 80s livery
Stunning and timeless plane
very nice , i loved MD11n and B747
Good memories!
Such a majestic aircraft! I always noticed it lands in such a high nose attitude....
Damn,Very beautiful! I love Md-11 ❤️😍
So happy i got to fly with a Thai MD11 from MEL to BKK once
Great Video, Miss the Tri-Jets :(
Is there a website that I can look up old routes for the md11 and dc10?
Back in the day 👍
How do they check that engine up top for any damage to the blades etc when they do the walk around.
Had the pleasure of flying on a Thai MD-11, enjoyable experience
Sweet memories!!
I went on cal air 1987 my first and only time in a DC 10 🙏
Can't wait to recreate this in MSFS with the TFDI MD-11
Memories many of them have been scrapped
HYPE PUBG some yeah but a good half became cargo planes
@@151BSSG yep
Varig Vasp best the best.
Very nice md11's
Cool
0:37, 0:49, 1:11
VARIG, VARIG, VARIG!
what a beauty
I liked seeing four world airways me-11s in different livery’s
I miss DC-10's and MD-11's, as well as the L-1011. They were great aircraft, ive heard nothing but good things from those who flew them.
Very nice and nostalgic Please send to #md11 👏
2:41 Wow that was a lot of flare during landing lol
What"s that open fusalage panel fwd of engine on the Aer Lingus machine?
it´s the Outflow Valve. It helps to regulate the cabin pressure.
VASP & VARIG ❤🇧🇷
Avianca could put its great corporative livery colors in this wonderful plane...
Beautiful unique planes, all there is now is twin engines...
Wow !!! an Avianca Colombia MD-11 😀😀😀
Love MD-11
I never got to fly on the MD-11.
Spent MANY hours building then, though.
steve
AA & DL Md-11s should have been used as LAX-JFK trans continental flagship planes rather than retired because they should be 8-10 years newer than a B767-200 or B757-200 both were 5-10 years old when MD-11 entered service in 1990-1991
@ I agree with you on that one but if you're around the 1970s 1980s you would have seen Trijet domestic flights in the United States. Examples are AA DC-10 ORD-LAX with a notable crash AA191 and UA DC-10 DEN-PHL TWA LGA-MIA
Lots of crow hopping on touchdown. I’ve heard it’s hard not to bounce these even on a calm day.
They just wanna fly
Década de ouro da Varig e Vasp.
I never realized how high the nose up angle is for landing.

Almost Twenty Years Ago
The good old 20th Century!
Fortunately most of these planes are still in carco use! :)
Aparece el MD-11 de Avianca alquilado durante una temporada!!
I was set to argue whether these aircraft were DC 10-30 or DC10-50 models not MD-11’s but you were right. I’ve flown DC-10’s with LTU, Finnair,, American, United, BA, butnever an MD-11. Delta flying an MD-11 that’s a new one
Reminds me of the handful of AA MD-11s I’d see when I lived near DFW. This was around 9/11, as the airline was already getting rid of them. Always a beautiful sight.
0:58 Coincidence as I was typing this.
hai all any one share there experience on MD 11
Councilman Les Wynan same......once in a while though a UPS MD11 lands here and that’s always nice to see.
Flew on MD-11s with Thai Airways and Swissair...unforgettable rides on a truly great airliner
🔴Avianca MD11 Awesome ✈
Never knew AV had a MD 11..great!!!!
@@roch9940 World Airways leased the Macdonnell Douglas MD-11 (ER) N278WA (msn/ln48746/597) to Avianca Colombia for the peak Holiday Period from Dec.10,1998-Jan 17,1999 for the Bogota - JFK route .
@@alejandrosaninmolina9208 ...thanks for your information my friend! I worked for Avianca the year before and I remember they wet leased a B747 for Christmas! I have nice memories from my time in Avianca. Greetings Alejandro
@@roch9940 Awesome..!! You most be proud of working in that big airline. What was your job in Avianca..
Greetings from Canada🍁
The MD11's were the Triple Sevens of the 90 's, right?
I always thought so, Boeing copied a lot from it
The fuselage is similar looking at it now
The MD 11 is an upgrade of the dc 10
last time i flew a dc 10 was on pan am in the 80s philly to miami
The md 11 is my fave plane
I have not seen Avianca on a MD-11, a lease maybe?
On lease from World Airways, reg N278WA
The most beautiful aircraft of all time.
@The Valenzuelas ok. 1t is the 747. But, my preference is the MD11.
does anyone know why vasp had the american register?
