sorry about the last thread i created guys
are biman bangladesh currently still operated the DC-10 ?

feb.20-2014 was the last DC-10 flight.
KLM retired the last MD-11 PAX on october 26 -2014

No civil pax-versions anymore.

FedEx operates several as the MD-10. I believe one MD-10 is operated as a flying hospital, and the USAF still operates 59 as tankers. The Netherlands has a few as tankers as well.

There is still these two KF Cargo of Canada DC-10Fs operating out of MIA.

DC-10/MD-11 ops are done globally for PAX.

Even VIP ops are winding down.........I think

Some of the questions you ask can be answered very easily by Google. Searching something as simple as "Biman last DC-10 flight" gives you the answer right away.

FedEx still operates 37 MD-10s and 57 MD-11s. That's certainly several

I might be wrong, but I think here are no VIP-MD11's anymore and definetily no more VIP DC-10 (and I cannot even remember that there was a VIP DC-10 at all (just military)).

I think this is correct. Only freighters and tankers left I believe. FedEx has a fair few though so they’ll be around a while yet (especially the MD11).

Don’t forget the handful of DC-10 firefighters...

Not necessarily a VIP but still a private one used to haul goods and employees between factories' locations.

because the DC-10 s aren't showing up on flightradar24 well I can't find any anyway

when was the last biman DC-10 to finish commercial operation

Seriously, if you follow the advice in my last post and do a simple Google search you will find the answer.

Hint: it was Feb 20 2014.

In 2007, Northwest Airlines became the last major carrier to retire the DC-10 from passenger service in the United States. McDonnell Douglas's famous (and at times infamous) jetliner logged its maiden voyage for passengers on August 5, 1971, on an American Airlines round trip between Los Angeles and Chicago.Jun 15, 2017

Man, too bad I missed that memo. Must've gone unnoticed due to the 747 retirements.

sorry

sorry

Does the FedEx fleet consist of any original DC-10s with the 3 man cockpit or have they all been converted to the new MD-10?

are you asking me ?

i think that the MD-10 is not much different to the DC-10

Yes it is. And this particular enthusiast has already had a reply to his identical question by the time of asking:

They were all converted to MD-10 many many years ago.

Lufthansa Cargo also uses MD-11

ok

A quick glance into the database reveals that aircraft stored in Afghanistan since at least 2012.

And no, Orbis no longer operates the DC-10. Their original DC-10 was replaced with a MD-10 donated by FedEx a few years ago.

whats does orbis operate now

All remaining examples in service are freighters, EXCEPT the Orbis MD-10-30 (line #96). The original Orbis MD-10-10 is a museum piece now at DMA (it was a testbed for McDonnell Douglas for its first 7 years). The Orbis MD-10-30 - de-converted from freighter with port-side passenger windows restored - flies where it's needed, usually with FedEx pilots.

Almost all remaining DC-10s are with air forces or FedEx (as an MD-10 with a glass cockpit) - a handful are still leased. For the MD-11, almost all remaining examples are with 4 airlines: FedEx, UPS, Western Global, and Lufthansa Cargo. The only ones still on lease are some FedEx examples and minor operators with fewer than 4 examples such as Centurion; the other airlines fully own their MD-11s. The most recent transaction was a sale by Lufthansa of three MD-11s to Western Global.

ok

Orbis' original DC-10 was a DC-10-10 . It's replacement is a MD-10-30 .

You ask questions which already have been answered in the same thread.
(like; last commercial DC10 flight... I answered that in the second post of this thread.)

Born as a DC-10-30CF, converted to DC-10-30(F) then MD-10-30(F) before it's current status which is more or less a MD-10-30 with a SCD.

No civil pax-versions anymore.

what do you mean

I am so sorry fellow moderators and bloggers but even though I am an aviation enthusiast I will never create another thread or forum page

Hadleigh

just interested are garuda still operating the md11 pax version because thats what wikipedia say but it might be wrong

Seriously? A 30 second Google search shows they appear to have retired their last pax example in 1998. That’s 20 years ago!

hey listen here mate i looked up on wikipedia or is that history

Wiggy... listen here, the MD11 and DC10 are dead as PAX aircraft. No-one is flying them hauling passengers. I believe this has been stated a few times in this thread.

PLEASE don't let the obnoxious sanctimonious people on here get to you. Create any thread you want, after doing some research in good faith. Many people including me found the thread perfectly-acceptable and interesting. If a thread is boring, I just move on. Which is what grown ups do.

Then why bother repeating it?

Because worded differently, it might finally sink in.
