MD-11/F - (5 airlines and 16 pictures...) ...

Recommended Posts

Today, I thought of taking to the air my Sky Simulations MD-11, only for the 2nd time...but, first, I wished to look around for a few more liveries to add to what I already had. I came across a couple of repaints in the library, that appealed to me...So, here are 5 airlines, I happened to (randomly) select, listed in the same order, as the MD-11 images, shown below. 

  1. Aeroflot Cargo (2 pics)
  2. Alitalia Cargo (5 pics)
  3. Aer Lingus - Leased from World Airways (2 pics)
  4. Swiss Airlines (3 pics)
  5. Delta Airlines - Circa 80's (4 pics)

As one of the painters of these liveries has said, "Please join me in KEEPING THE MIGHTY MD11 FLYING!"...I'm doing my part, here...🙂...flying it in my virtual skies. Of course, the passenger MD-11s are now gone from the real sky, but the (diehard) Freighter versions/conversions are still flying with a few select airlines...

Please find, below, 16 images of this classic trijet... (captured from various angles, so, you can hopefully appreciate the beauty of this plane, a plane that may not have succeeded in the marketplace, but surely still conjures up fond memories of the McDonnell Douglas spirit...) ...! In the final 2 screenshots, the Delta MD-11 is flying into the sunset, attempting to symbolize the end of MD-11 era...🙂...Gone but not forgotten, as they say...

Thanks for viewing and good flying...!!

Great set of shots and selection of liveries! And, of course, as a big fan of tri-jets, especially the Douglas ones, I like your post even more. 👍
