PMDG MD-11! Born out of airline
requirements for a "modern new DC-10" the MD-11 is a superb example of
aircraft engineering from the era when modern computer processing power
was beginning to bring truly new ideas, safety and capability to the
cockpit of transport airplanes. Highly automated and employing
innovative new approaches to the pilot/airplane interface, the MD-11
took the McDonnell Douglas widebody line into the future with fully
automated flight modes, aircraft system status pages, failure
consequence displays and clearly thought out pilot controls. One of the
most advanced airplanes ever produced by Douglas, the MD-11 has been
largely missing from desktop simulation... Until Now
Currently in the fourth year of development, PMDG's
award winning development team is faithfully capturing the nuance, feel
and character of this great airliner to a degree of detail never before
seen in desktop simulation. Employing a highly skilled team of
Technical Advisors from the aviation field, our development team has
daily input from MD-11 Captains, First Officers, Field Technicians,
Training Managers and even engineers involved in the design/build of the
airplane at Douglas nearly twenty years ago. During each step of the
development process, every facet of the PMDG MD-11 is validated in the
training simulator to ensure it has been modeled correctly, right down
to the finest detail. All of this technical expertise means that our
development team has the very best source of information to ensure the
PMDG MD-11 precisely matches it's majestic real world counterpart!
