put N306FE into a museum
The Issue
N306FE is one of the most historic airliners including its pilots. the aircraft was a DC-10 before being converted to an MD-10 and operating with Federal Express (FedEx) and during one of its flights, the crew were attacked with several hammers and a spear gun. the copilot and first officer attacked the attacker in the galley area . the captain kept on flying the aircraft and pulled several extreme Maneuvers that should not be possible in an MD-10 or any airliner really. Just a couple of these maneuvers include: going inverted, diving WHILE INVERTED AT FULL THROTTLE. The aircraft went so fast during the dive that a mach tuck effect developed on the aircraft (airflow over the wings reaching supersonic speeds). Keep in mind all of this happened while the aircraft had a full load of fuel and cargo. Also because of the full load of fuel and cargo, the aircraft was too fast, too heavy, and too high to land. All of these factors combined could have broken up the aircraft on landing but with the crews efforts. Everyone got on the ground safely. The crew were never able to fly again due to their health after the event but the attacker was arrested. N306FE, one of the only airliners to pull such a feat and still land, is being retired on december 31st, 2022 and will most likely be put in victorville to rot slowly but surely. Obviously, this cannot happened due to the historic nature of such an aircraft so it would make sense to put it into a museum for future generations to understand the history and enjoy the aircraft in all of its glory.
