The DC10 was the first wide-bodied jet to be purchased by Air New Zealand and for that matter, most other world airlines. It remains a classic of its day. I really like the form of the DC10. Since it and the Lockhead tristar, there hasn't been any need for wide-bodied tri-jets. This very scratchy photo, I dug up, taken from my first camera, is of a UTA DC10 at AKL international in 1984! This airline no longer exists and was, if I recall correctly, an airline designed to serve the far-flung French speaking parts of the world.
