Featured Replies

The first MD-11 was delivered to Finnair on December 7, 1990. Sixteen years ago today. Just thought this might be interesting to some people.(If anyone thinks my info is wrong, please let me know, it's what I've found in 5 or 6 places.)

Boeing's site has the information of first delivery on dec 7, 1990... Strange :(Best regards!

Shortly thereafter, I flew Hong Kong to Zurich and back pretty regularly with Swissair MD-11s, living in Taipei. The home team China Airlines got them slightly later.>The first MD-11 was delivered to Finnair on December 7, 1990.>Sixteen years ago today.
