McDonnell created the MD-11 in the early 1990s. A lack of resources and time meant the MD-11 was a sales flop with a questionable safety record but also a unique three-engined machine in the twin-jet era, and enjoyed a long and interesting career both in passenger operations and freight hauling. A fascinating chapter in the history of the Jet Age.
