McDonnell Douglas MD-11

On this MD-11 world tour, pilots are treated to a breathtaking cross-section of the planet from the flight deck. Departing the clean, crisp air of Zurich, they cross the Atlantic to the gleaming skyline of New York, then cruise over the forests of the southeastern U.S. to reach Atlanta. A transatlantic hop brings them back to Europe, followed by a massive leap across Siberia and the North Pacific to land in bustling Tokyo. They fly across glittering oceans toward California and sunny Hawaii, traverse the sweeping deserts en route to the Middle East, and dodge towering Andean peaks when flying between Colombia and Miami. Night departures out of Cairo reveal the shimmering Nile far below, while the cold South Atlantic air greets them en route from Brazil to London. In the cockpit, they watch day turn to night and back again, flying through shimmering auroras, thunderstorms flashing like strobes over dark oceans, the golden glow of deserts, endless green jungles, and deep blue seas — all while managing the classic MD-11's famously hands-on flight deck, a blend of 1990s analog toughness and early digital systems. Every landing and takeoff brings a new culture, new challenge, and new skyline into view.
