I see some speculation (F/O's MD-11 experience level based on an irrelevant quote about how F/O's in the Lufthansa system come up through narrow body aircraft) and some misinformation (comment about the MD-11 flying with an aft CG, which only occurs during cruise) in this article which surprises me coming from AWST. Personally, I'll wait for the accident report to come out before consigning the Mad Dog 11 to the scrap heap.
