I'm headed to Austin International, and I just saw an MD-11, and I'll update you guys later with a video, maybe.

    @Tully2001 some cool stuff in skiathos. I saw a thompson 757 do a fail landing because of the winds, a Germania 737 do a very smooth crosswind landing, dash q-900 fly low and touch down, also I videod a group of people sitting behind a 757 on the road before it took off and the jet blast! It was awsome seeing them get so wrecked, finair a320 landing in fairly easy conditions, a Thomas cook a320 do a awful landing oh yeah and when I was leaving the island the Thompson plane that did the touch and go was the plane that I WAS GOING TO TAKE HOME! So it diverted to Athens and we got delayed by 5 hours! But at least the landing was smooth ;-)

    I never liked the MD-11. Or even the DC-10 for that matter. Every heavy pilot I ever talked to said they'd never want to fly one. Not a lot of trust in it I'd guess. I saw a KC-10 doing touch-and-go training at my airbase once. That's the only time I've even seen the airframe up close.
