The Search for a DC10 to be filmed in UK
 
Discovery is looking to film a DC-10 and apart from the one at Manston Airport, and at Manchester does anyone know of a DC10 that is in tact and in UK?
Please call 0208 6007926 or 07961 124731 if you know of any others.
Many thanks
Sascha

Monarch has a DC10 or two until a couple of years ago ... not sure if they're still around

The front quarter of it is sitting at manchester airport

You might want to post this query under "Aviation History and Nostalgia." If there's a Doug 10 anywhere in England, those anoraks will know it.

Quite sure the answer is no. Omni visit the UK and thats about it and they are to busy.

I would suggest contacting Air Salvage International . You may look them up at:

Only DC10's to be seen are those visiting - freighters from the likes of World Airways and they do not stay long

lots of DC10's in mojave, california, USA...near Edward's AFB...take a trip.

also, you might see some KC10 tankers now and again in England...

If you come across one of these it may well be intact but not necessarily airworthy !

what about the Orbis flying eye hospital

TOWTEAMBASE 16th Sep 2010 19:26

or even the USAF, still operate the 10's

Omni Air International, Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA. https://www.omniairintl.com/

about 8 DC10 pax and 2 fire bombers

waffler 16th Sep 2010 19:59

Omni have a couple in Shannon I believe.

Omni International is a well run company, and....has made a profit with their ops for the last ten years, uninterupted.
Privately owned, and very stable.
The 'Laker' of the US charter airlines....without the drama.:}
Sandy Burstein has it right...and, most of their pilots agree.

Reverserbucket 16th Sep 2010 21:16

Great! Let's give Sandy a call then...:}

Bigt 17th Sep 2010 07:31

Are there any at Kemble at present?

finnman 17th Sep 2010 14:58

DC10
 
Avient operate from LGG with DC10

Sir George Cayley 17th Sep 2010 19:11

What about DAS Cargo into LGW ?

Of course it might help if you called them by their correct name...


The Death Cruiser :ok:


SGC

MSF 17th Sep 2010 23:36

Omni have a maintenance base in EINN .
There are always one or two on the ground, not counting the troopers.

JW411 18th Sep 2010 08:33

I thought DAS Cargo had gone down the pan some time ago so you are not likely to see one of their DC10s at LGW.

Have Avient in LGG still got a DC10? I thought they had moved on to MD11s?
