McDonnell Douglas MD-11

The McDonnell Douglas MD-11 is a large, long-range, three-engine commercial jet airliner used for passenger and cargo flights. It features a distinctive tail-mounted engine and a wide, comfortable cabin designed to carry many passengers or cargo over considerable distances efficiently. Introduced in the 1990s, it was designed to be an advanced successor to earlier twin-engine aircraft, offering improved range and payload capacity. Known for its aerodynamic design and modern systems, the MD-11 was popular among airlines and freight companies, though production ended in 2000. It remains in service primarily for cargo operations around the world.
