  • KLM MD-11 taking off from St. Maarten's Princess Juliana Airport bound for Kralendijk, Bonaire and Amsterdam on 25th Sept 2009. Note the captains comment about St.Maartens short runway, the aircrafts pretty light weight, full takeoff thrust and the ferrari fealing to expect ( it felt as a rocket :-)

    The MD-11 has some of the most powerful jet engines on any commercial aircraft. Lots of fun to fly in, too bad they never we're popular in passenger use.

    • @EASTYJAZ34

      Definitely not
      But has 3 engines thus power to weight ratio is good

    • @wlfgang
      @wlfgang 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      They are not unusual, it's because md-11 has 3 of them not 2.

  • @wockkel83
    @wockkel83 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Awesome! I kinda feel like the pilots used the 'short' runway as an excuse to see just how fast they could take off with a light weight :P

  • @kenpalmer1965
    @kenpalmer1965 12 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I love this video! As the plane is positioning itself for takeoff, you can see some the beachgoeros in the background that are about to be blasted by the jet blast. They come to this beach particularly to watch the incoming planes land and go right over them. But they also do "fence surfing," meaning they hold onto a chain link fence while jets are taking off right across the street from them. Some people have been literally knocked down by the jet blast during the takeoffs. It sounds like fun!

    Very athletic MD-11! By 3:12 in this video you are looking back at runway you took off from. Much faster and higher rate of climb than a 47 filmed from on TH-cam.

  • @DannoAviation
    @DannoAviation 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    One of my favourite videos… never seen a faster accelerating commercial airliner, the way the MD11 picked up speed was like nothing else in my opinion… a real shame I never got to fly on one.

    Yes, the Md-11 is still in service with KLM. It should be around for a few more years. I know KLM is looking for a replacement for it, though. KLM is looking to replace the MD-11 with the A-350 or the 787, but with how many delays the 787 has encountered, the MD-11 will be around for a while. I hope you get to fly in it.

    Technically, probably not.. KL's M11s don't have a bump... more like 90-92% thrust with an assumed temperature, which the throttles would register as "full."
