So, today marks the final scheduled passenger flight of the DC-10, anyone else going to do a remembrance flight? I'm planning on doing a classic UAL flight from PHL to ORD...
I never flew on the DC-10 in real life, but flew on her cousin the MD-11 once.. A flight from Atlanta to Salt Lake City, an enroute leg returning home to Anchorage from Basic Training in the Army in 1991.. The MD-11 was a nice plane, and I wish I could have spent time on the DC-10, but as a kid my parents flew Braniff, Piedmont, and Eastern mostly (the few times we actually flew that is, lol.. my dad was Air Force, but hated flying.. definite head scratcher there)
