Anyone ever fly on a MD-11 before?

[CaliforniaDreaming]

In my attempt to find a good airfare to Orlando, I've found that one flight we might need to take is opperated by a MD-11. I've heard of these before, and I'm not sure of their safety. Can anyone who is knowledgeable about this aircraft comment about it? Thanks!

Looks like a newer model DC-10.

It is safe.

Dan beat me to it... seems fine to me. Never flew on one but it looks like a nice plane with decent records from what I found too.
