Air Crimson Douglas DC-10-40

First delivered in 1972, the DC-10 served many of the smaller airports the 747 could not operate in at the time. It was an excellent aircraft for many European routes as well as the routes to Asia. The aircraft were first delivered wearing the "Flying Stripes" livery debuting in 1970 as a "Cleaner" looking livery. The 747 and DC-10, both entering service in that livery, were a symbol of growth for Memphis' hometown airline that had started out flying up and down the Mississippi to serving all across the world.
