A lack of resources and time meant the MD-11 became much less - a sales flop with a questionable safety record - and much more - a unique three-engines machine in the twin-jet era that went on to have a long and interesting career both in passenger operations and freight hauling. This book shows the development of the aircraft with a detailed look at the history of Douglas, the path through the DC-10 to the MD-11, it's troubled entry into service, and its second wind as a reliable cargo hauler. The text is accompanied by a detailed history of every airframe, from delivery to retirement. A fascinating chapter in the history of the Jet Age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1 The Road to the MD-11\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2 The story of the MD-11\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 MD-11 in Detail\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e4 Propulsion Controlled Aircraft\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e5 Safety, flying and handling\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e6 Individual Aircraft History\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e7 Traffic jam in the Monsoon\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 282\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.94 x 8.5 x 8.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 25, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53337106153837,"sku":"9780993260452","price":71.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1001\/0823\/9213\/files\/LbHvb7S4Fg9780993260452.webp?v=1778926323","url":"https:\/\/cleanfreaklab.myshopify.com\/products\/the-story-of-the-md-11-hardcover","provider":"Clean Freak Lab","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
