Aircraft Data for: McDonnell Douglas DC-10 10 | Updated: Nov. 29th 2008 |
| Summary: | The DC-10 is a three engined medium to long range widebody airliner. It was the first of the tri-motor airliners, and was built from 1970 to 1988. After some early crashes the DC-10 settled down to be a very reliable workhorse, built in many variants. The DC10-10 was the first production version, it was only medium range, mainly built for the American domestic market. Almost every survivor has been converted to a freighter, and serves with Federal Express. | | |
