Yes it is troubling why so many MD11 end up that way. But we can't always expect to correct it via withdrawing a valid airworthiness certificate as suggested.
What makes it even more troubling is the fact MD11 was operated so far by reasonably reputable carriers only (one can argue about Avient, ok). So is our bet would be no MD11 will survive till 3rd grade/cowboy outfits can afford them, or this type will make a world record on built/loss ratio?
