When I was going into Memphis on the 17th, I could have sworn I saw a FedEx DC10 on a approach. Does anyone know if they are still lurking in the skies? I saw some pictures of recent 727's so there might still be hope. I also found this funny pic of the so called "DC10-05"

Of course there are still DC-10s.

That's what I suspected

Found one!

What is this 2timoth42.org doing to these poor DC10's!?

This is a joke right?
You go to memphis and spend a day there, you'll see more DC10's in a day than you'll have seen in your life.

We were driving in. Not a busy day. I saw a ton of NWA DC-9's. 2 or 3 DC-10's. A few 737-700's. A couple A330's.

Well trust me, if you love the 10, its a Fedex work horse, on my last day in memphis a few years back we stopped at a hotel not far from the airport, the fedex bank in the afternoon all took off towards us. I just sat out on the balcony, DC10's Md11's 727's. It was classic jet excellence.

Google Omega Air and you'll see they could be a regular sight around the world for a few years yet...

Fedex has 82 DC-10s and 58 MD-11s. Infact, almost half of Fedex is made up of the DC-10 / MD-11.

Not forgetting KC-10s and KDC-10s!

They're still out there working hard... I think I just heard one take off over at KEWR.

Oh, and I forgot, along with Omega in the US and UK, the Falklands run for the RAF is now performed by Omni Air DC-10s out of Brize...

But the L1011 Tankers are still the kings at Brize Norton, right?
