DC-10s were made by McDonnell-Douglas. "DC" means "Douglas Commercial."

McDonnell-Douglas was purchased by Boeing, so if your DC-10 needs parts you order them from Boeing now.

McDonnell Douglas ended in 1997.

The DC-10 is a long range commercial airplane that McDonnell-Douglas placed into service in the early 1970s. This was McDonnell-Douglas's contribution to the introduction of wide-bodied airliners to the aviation industry, beginning service at about the same time as the Boeing 747 and Lockheed L1011. There is an excellent story of the DC-10 at the following website: http://www.aviationexplorer.com/dc-10_facts.htm

McDonnell Douglas was created on 1967-04-28.
