February 12, 201214 yr Hi everybody,If this has already been discussed, please remove it.I am a huge fan of the PMDG MD-11 but I have a question about it's Operating Empty Weight. In the aircraft configurator, it's listed as approx 124000 kg. I find this surprising because when I was F/E on DC-10 (30) some of them had a OEW of 125700 kg while the lightest was 122700 kg. Maybe I'm wrong, but how the MD-11 can be lighter than the DC-10 while being larger.Any thoughts will be appreciated.Sincerely,Pierre A
