What is a Boeing (Douglas) M11?
The MD-11, the world’s only modern large, wide-cabin trijet, offers a highly sophisticated flight deck and advanced automatic system controls that substantially reduce pilot workload. In service with customers in all parts of the world, the MD-11 was produced in Long Beach, California, at the Douglas Products Division of the Boeing Commercial Airplanes until February 2001. A worldwide network of subcontractors and suppliers supported the assembly line. The MD-11 was available in four models — passenger, all freighter, convertible freighter and “combi,” where passengers and freight are carried on the main deck with additional freight carried below the deck. An extended-range (ER) feature was available on all versions. Seating capacities on the standard airplane vary from 285 in a three-class arrangement to 410 in an all-economy configuration. Below the main deck, the MD-11 provides more space for containerized or palletized cargo after passenger bags are loaded than any other jetliner,
