Checklist for Reliability of Older Audis

[Jeff Waterstreet]

I just checked; none of the major scheduled commercial airlines in the US or
any major country have any for that matter, except a small charter airline
company in Oklahoma has 8.  There are a couple flying passenger service in
Peru and Bangladesh, not airlines that most of us would fly on under any
circumstance.

 

Fedex owns most of the 100 or so still flying, around 75.

True? Or only in America? pretty sure they fly passenger in other parts of
the world.

This comment uses a bad example; the last DC-10 was retired in 2007.  They
don't fly passenger service anymore; just freight.
