The DC-10 was intended to succeed the DC-8 for long-range flights. It first flew on August 29, 1970; it was introduced on August 5, 1971, by American Airlines.The Tri-jet has two turbofans on under-wing pylons and a third one at the base of the vertical stabilizer. The twin-aisle layout has a typical seating for 270 in two classes. The initial DC-10-10 had a 3,500 nmi (6,500 km) range for transcontinental flights. The DC-10-15 had more powerful engines for hot and high airports. The DC-10-30 and −40 models (with a third main landing gear leg to support higher weights) each had intercontinental ranges of up to 5,200 nmi (9,600 km). The KC-10 Extender (based on the DC-10-30) is a U.S. Air Force tanker.A design flaw in the original cargo doors caused a poor safety record in early operations. Following the American Airlines Flight 191 crash (the deadliest aviation accident in US history), the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grounded all U.S. DC-10s in June 1979. In August 1983, McDonnell Douglas announced that production would end due to a lack of orders, as it had a widespread public apprehension after the 1979 crash and a poor fuel economy reputation.[2] Design flaws were rectified and fleet hours increased, for a safety record later comparable to similar era passenger jets.Production ended in 1989, with 386 delivered to airlines along with 60 KC-10 tanker aircraft. The DC-10 outsold the similar Lockheed L-1011 TriStar. It was succeeded by the lengthened, heavier McDonnell Douglas MD-11. After merging with McDonnell Douglas in 1997, Boeing upgraded many in-service DC-10s as the MD-10 with a glass cockpit that eliminated the need for a flight engineer. In February 2014, the DC-10 made its last commercial passenger flight. Cargo airlines continued to operate it as a freighter. The Orbis Flying Eye Hospital is a DC-10 adapted for eye surgery. A few DC-10s have been converted for aerial firefighting use. Some DC-10s are on display, while other retired aircraft are in storage.Specifications The schematic of the McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30 (side, top, front, cross-section) DC-10 Airplane Characteristics[113] Variant -10 -30 -40 Cockpit crew Three Std. seating 270 (222Y 8-abreast @ 34" + 48J 6-abreast @ 38") Max. seating 399Y (10-abreast @ 29–34" pitch) layout, FAA exit limit: 380[114] Cargo 26 LD3 layout, main deck: 22 88×125″ or 30 88x108″ pallets Length 182 ft 3.1 in / 55.55 m 181 ft 7.2 in / 55.35 m 182 ft 2.6 in / 55.54 m Height 57 ft 6 in / 17.53 m 57 ft 7 in / 17.55 m Wingspan 155 ft 4 in / 47.35 m 165 ft 4 in / 50.39 m Wing area[115] 3,550 sq ft (330 m2) 3,647 sq ft (338.8 m2) Width 19 ft 9 in (6.02 m) fuselage, 224 in (569 cm) interior OEW (pax) 240,171 lb / 108,940 kg 266,191 lb / 120,742 kg 270,213 lb / 122,567 kg MTOW 430,000 lb / 195,045 kg 555,000 lb / 251,744 kg Max. payload 94,829 lb / 43,014 kg 101,809 lb / 46,180 kg 97,787 lb 44,356 kg Fuel capacity 21,762 US gal / 82,376 L 36,652 US gal / 137,509 L Engines ×3 GE CF6-6D GE CF6-50C PW JT9D-20 / -59A Thrust ×3[115] 40,000 lbf / 177.92 kN 51,000 lbf / 226.85 kN 53,000 lbf / 235.74 kN Cruise Mach 0.82 (473 kn; 876 km/h) typical, Mach 0.88 (507 kn; 940 km/h) MMo[114] Range[a] 3,500 nmi (6,500 km) 5,200 nmi (9,600 km) 5,100 nmi (9,400 km) Takeoff[b] 9,000 ft (2,700 m) 10,500 ft (3,200 m) 9,500 ft (2,900 m) Ceiling 42,000 ft (12,800 m)[114]
