Newark Airport DC10s & MD11s (2001)

Back in the days where Continental had a major hub at Newark Airport and was operating a bunch of DC10s and some of the other airlines who operated them as well including Citybird who operated a pair of MD11s on behalf of Sabena. The Newark, La Guardia, JFK Airports 2001-05 are loaded with incredible memories featuring 6 hours of video and more than 150 airlines! You don't want to miss this!

It's weird that footage from the 2000's looks like it's from the 80's.

[@jayjaytv2563]

Why though

[@avgfree21]

its because we have become visually accustomed to higher quality content now. but back in 2001 this was HD

[@klk1900]

This does not look like 80s footage. This looks like high quality 2000-2003 footages huge difference between 80’s or even 90s. I take it you are a child maybe.

[@everythingman987]

That's probably because home video quality didn't improve much from the 80s to the 00's. Wasn't until digital cameras and later cellphones that we saw a huge improvement.

William Aguiar Aviation didn't change forever since 2001. Airport security was stepped up and planespotting became suddenly difficult in the United States. That's about it if you ask me. Today more and more people fly and continue to fly.

7:32 Nice Fedex DC-10-30 takeoff

[@luckyme4136]

40 years ago, 25/5/79 American Flight 191 took off from Chicago O'Hare bound for LAX. It never made it. On takeoff one of the engines of the DC-10 detached and sent the aircraft into a 90 degree bank. Poor maintenance was to blame for the 273 fatalities.

[@vieuxbal1253]

@1LuckyGuy 40Ladies reminds me of United Flight 232 on July 19 1989. Here again a DC-10 crash-landed at Sioux City, Iowa, after suffering a catastrophic failure of its #2engine, which led to the loss of the hydraulic system.

[@luckyme4136]

@@vieuxbal1253 Thank heavens they don't put large engines on the tail of commercial jets these days! An uncontained fan blade ejection would rip the horizontal and vertical stabilizer to shreds resulting in inevitable loss of control. Remember Turkish 981? Cargo door blew open and put the DC-10 in a nosedive. 346 fatalities. RIP

[@vieuxbal1253]

@@luckyme4136 very true.

[@AlonsoRules]

Of all all the plane crashes I've studied, Flight 191 (1979) is by far the worst one of the lot. The worst part was that the takeoff was shown to the passenger cabin on screens. They watched their own deaths.

[@BayAreaLen]

Bring back the tri-jet. With engine efficiency now, imagine what a beast of an aircraft you could get in airborne with, for example, 3x GE9X. Make it about 1.7 times the length of an A380, but shorten the rear, top floor a couple meters to make room for a giant, fuselage shaped, S-duct to get enough air to the rear engine. The top of the duct would be flush with the fuselage width and go half way around the top, making it sleek and with the most efficient utilization of shape and weight. Bring the wings back to keep the AOA proper and make them folding like the 777X. The result could be the most efficient, longest range commercial aircraft... ever.

[@vieuxbal1253]

Why don't you show us a rendering of your aircraft 😊

[@BayAreaLen]

@@vieuxbal1253 Thanks, and I wish I could draw, but imagine a totally flush, fuselage shape until the last 2 or 3 meters of the back, top half, drop off with about a 2' clearance, exactly half way around the fuselage. My theory is, that shape would accomplish saving weight, allowing enough air for a GE9X to reach the rear engine, and keep the sleek look of the plane whole, but having the top of the duct the exact same shape as the fuselage. Then calculate the total thrust of 3 of those bad-boys and figure the wing loading and MTOW capability, and build a HUGE aircraft accordingly, with one shortened version for an "LR" type. 500+ people, SYD to JFK with added space for commercial cargo, conservatively.

[@vieuxbal1253]

@@BayAreaLen the problem is that Airlines' bean counters don't want more than 2 engine in order to cut costs.

Pretty somber knowing it’s 2001 and those towers are still standing. Great classic plane footage…

[@maekmarty]

It takes them quite some time (and runway lenght) to get airborne. Though I like the old three-engine layout, DC10s are odd.

[@sobelou]

At least the passenger ones they're Intercontinental flights for sure, so they are bound to have high take off weights. In fact the DC-10 had more pounds of thrust per pound of weight than the 747.

[@mirrormirroronthewall1905]

Look at the 747-100 and 200.

[@sobelou]

@@mirrormirroronthewall1905 There is nothing to look at if you don't know what the take off weight is at any given time. Simple math will give you the answer. Add the maximum thrust of the engines, and divide typical MTOW by that figure. For a typical DC-10-30, it would be 570000 lbs TOW divided by 150000 lbs of thrust; for a 747-200, with the same GE engines, it would be 810000 lbs TOW divided by 200000 lbs of thrust. That will give you the ratio of power vs. weight. Then get familiar with the TO Flex feature of the DC-10; you enter weight, temperature, wind and runway length in the computer, and it will give you the thrust that you need for a successful take off. Taking off at 97% N1 instead of 100 or 105% will save tons of money in engine wear and tear and maintenance expenses.

[@mirrormirroronthewall1905]

I meant their performance at near MTOW like using most of 11000 ft runways but thanks for the lecture anyway, and your absolutely right about considering their TOW and thrust.

[@Dana_Danarosana]

That whole thing was negligence from the start. Continental maintenance used an improper part to repair an engine nacelle on the DC-10. Air France maintenance forgot to replace an axle spacer on the starboard landing gear leaving the wheels wobbling. Witnesses saw flames from that landing gear long before it hit the metal strip. And the plane was veering left and unable to gain speed... almost hit a 747 waiting to take off! I find it difficult to find fault with the DC-10 or Concorde for that terrible tragedy. The combination of a couple of apparently small maintenance errors proved deadly.

[@luckynumber3230]

What is different between DC 10 and Dc 11 ? I want to know..

[@sobelou]

Compare the Sabena MD-11 with any of the Continental DC-10s. The MD-11 has a longer fuselage, the tail end has the shape of a slot screwdriver (like the B777), the stabilizers are smaller and most visible, it has winglets that the DC-10 does not have.
