Historical Note Cont'd:    The McDonnell Douglas MD-11 Demonstrator is the world's only modern large, wide-cabin tri-jet. The MD-11, first flew on January 10, 1990, is an American three-engine medium to long-range wide body airliner, with two engines mounted on under wing pylons and a third engine at the base of the vertical stabilizer. It offers a highly sophisticated flight deck and advanced automatic system controls that substantially reduces pilot workload. It was produced in Long Beach, California, at the Douglas Products Division of the Boeing Commercial Airplane Group.

The MD-11 was one of the first commercial designs to employ a computer-assisted pitch stability augmentation system that featured a fuel ballast tank in the tailplane, and a partly computer-driven horizontal stabilizer.

After McDonnell Douglas merged with Boeing in 1997, the new company announced that MD-11 production would continue, as a freighter. However, in 1998 Boeing announced it would end MD-11 production after filling current orders. The last two MD-11s were manufactured during June and September 2000, and delivered to Lufthansa Cargo on February 22 and January 21, 2001 respectively.
