The busiest cargo airline in the world, FedEx Express has become synonymous around the world for its cargo operations, with their origins and namesake beginning with the dedicated cargo airline that began operations in 1973 as Federal Express.
Based from their SuperHub in Memphis, Tennessee; the carrier is one of the few remaining airlines to continue operating the venerable McDonnell Douglas MD-11Fs, the successor to the classic McDonnell Douglas DC-10. Very recently, the carrier have recently retired the last of the modified McDonnell Douglas MD-10s.
Today, FedEx Express continues to operate a sizeable fleet of McDonnell Douglas MD-11Fs with 49 currently in the fleet and they continue to see use on both domestic and international flights, however their number is dwindling with the introduction of Boeing 767-300Fs and Boeing 777Fs.
It is always a pleasure to see the McDonnell Douglas MD-11Fs, especially with their fast landing speed owing to the uniqueness of the airframes wings located more aft of the fuselage, hence their tendency to bounce.
Currently, FedEx Express operates 49 McDonnell Douglas MD-11s, all of which are McDonnell Douglas MD-11Fs.
November Six Three One Foxtrot Echo is one of 49 McDonnell Douglas MD-11Fs operated by FedEx Express, delivered new to Swissair as HB-IWI on 15th November 1991 carrying name of the canton of Uri, later transferring over to Swissair Asia for flights to Taiwan but still operated by Swissair until their collapse on 31st March 2002 when operations transferred to Swiss International Air Lines being renamed Dent Blanche. She was withdrawn from service in June 2004, acquired by FedEx Express on 23rd December 2004 following conversion into a freighter and she is powered by 3 Pratt & Whitney PW4462 engines.
