I was browsing the pics of DL's M11's and really miss them I was wondering though as I was thumbing through them...what type of engine do they have and their thrust rating? Thanks

Delta had the P&W engines but I'm not sure if they were the 60K or 62K engines.

I believe several of the M11s ended up being uprated to PW4462s to support the Pacific operations.

Phollingsworth is right...DL's first MD-11s were leased and GE-powered. They were also missing the Delta tiles from the tail...the GE-powered MD-11s had the tail-look of the DC-10s Delta flew.
