All variants featured accurate weight & balance, performance, and fuel burn data derived from real MD-11 manuals.
The MD-11’s FMS is not Boeing and not Airbus. It’s pure McDonnell Douglas—quirky, logical once learned, but utterly unique. PMDG modeled the in extreme depth. You can program routes, SIDs/STARs, performance calculations, and even the infamous “Offset Approach” for places like Kai Tak.
: Often contain discussions and legacy support threads for the boxed version of the PMDG MD-11.
The addon allows for extensive customization through external coding to avoid standard FSX interface limitations.
The flight model is praised for capturing the MD-11’s unique "soft pitch" response, which can lead to pilot-induced oscillations (PIO) due to its smaller stabilizer designed for fuel efficiency. Configuration & Usability
