"WHY MD-11 IS ONE OF THE MOST UNFORGIVING JETS TO LAND The NTSB identified the MD-11s high landing speed as a major factor behind its hard-landing accident history. Higher approach speeds mean a very narrow flare window increasing the risk of a late or ineffective flare. Many MD-11 hard landings involved bounced touchdowns and porpoising. In this aircraft excessive vertical loads could overstress the main landing gear and wing spar in extreme cases leading to structural failure and rollover. By [----] the MD-11 had the highest hard-landing rate among large Western-built airliners: [----] events"
