Title: McDonnell-Douglas DC-10/MD-11
Post by: Joe Copalman on August 11, 2009, 03:57:12 PM
Can't believe we don't have a DC-10 thread yet.  Getting the party started:

Nice shots guys.

You know what Brown can do for me Dave?  Brown lost a very important box of my stuff, when I moved back to AZ. back in 1990.  Brown can find my damn box.  That's what Brown can do for me.  As a consolation, a ride in their DC-10 would work for now.

They can also find my jacket that I left in Fort Walton Beach, Florida and that a friend sent back via UPS. 

I loved that damned jacket.

I just noticed on the nose it says "MD-10" ,did I miss something?

Thanks Chris!  DC-10s make me nostalgic as well, as it seemed that was all that flew out of O'Hare when I was growing up just outside Chicago.

MD-10 = DC-10 with updated avionics to make it common with the MD-11.

FedEX flight 3711 from Indianapolis landing on Runway 26 on Tuesday, October 26. FedEx McDonnell-Douglas DC-10-30 N314FE was delivered to FedEx on August 26, 1998. Its construction number is 48612.

Post by: Ramp Rat on October 28, 2010, 11:43:32 AM
I know I'm being a nit-picky bugger here, but I just wanted to point out that that aircraft is actually an MD-10. Only FedEx operates MD-10's, and it is a basically a full flight deck conversion from the 3-crew DC-10 flight deck to the modern 2-crew MD-11 flight deck.  Externally, you'd almost never be able to tell the difference, but it is possible. Notice the fin antenna on top of the fuselage at the wings. On a DC-10, that antenna would be located over the cockpit. MD-11's and MD-10's have that antenna over the wings.

Ok, nit-picking is complete! Great photos, Brian!  ;D

The early morning AZ light is certainly revealing Scott. Here is a late evening shot that is a tad more subtle due to the overcast. If you hadn't noticed, I like DC-10's and MD-11's - especially the 3/4 backside angle  ;D

While I was not successful, I did appreciate our consolation prize of one UPS and two FedEx trijets that arrived in short succession as the last rays of sunshine were disappearing below the horizon.

The interplay of the storm clouds to the west and the early morning sun made for some interesting lighting on the FedEx MD-11's.

On final to Phoenix Sky Harbor.  Sky was a bit smoky to the west from the big recycled material fire
that was raging at the time just southwest of the airport.

Very nice photo Anna. Was this taken at the 40th st. location we talked about a couple months ago? My orientation is off on this, is this sunrise or sunset, I'm thinking sunrise.

Post by: Anna M. Wood on September 06, 2014, 09:25:34 PM
Thank you Harvey.   :)

This was at 40th St at sunset.  I went a bit further west to the second big transmission line tower so I was just across from the threshold of 25L.  The box haulers typically use 25L with the freight operations being on the south side of the field.

Getting to be that time of year where the light is good for shooting from 40th St.

What I really liked about the capture was the jello from the engines highlighted by the faint rays of sun trying to break through this morning's clouds way to the east.  The sunrise amongst the clouds reflecting off the nose of the airframe is pretty cool too.
