I think it is safe to say that after all these years, it's pretty evident that it is a crappy plane that doesnt tolerate errors at all
It certainly doesn't tolerate bad operators, I agree. It is one of these aircraft to expose the inadequate with no mercy. Insofar it is no longer adequate for today's standard.
On the other hand it exposes this characteristic on landing only. Apart from SR111, which was doomed due to enhancement c@ck-ups, not one of them fell out of the air uncontrolled and stalled, like another make.
Same origin, certainly, inadequate operators, but just as much design flaws.
But as it seems, one designer gets the eternal blessing, the other the damning.
13 years of MD11 operation, not one hard landing, not one bounce.
I'll take it anytime, because in all these years I never heard "what is it doing now ....?" or "are you doing something or not???"
