The MD-11 does not have FBW controls. It has an LSAS system with input to the pitch control via the a/p but there are no direct FBW controls. The main difference is the DC-10/MD-10 has that lovely great horizontal stabilizer, the MD-11's is vastly smaller in size.

It wasn't the bags they were desperately trying to get out the burning hull, it was the catering. It's in the contract so have it they must!
