The DC-10 is a low-wing cantilever monoplane, powered by three turbofan engines.
Two engines are mounted on pylons that attach to the bottom of the wings, while the third engine is encased in a protective banjo-shaped structure that is mounted on the top of the rear fuselage. The vertical stabilizer, with its two-segment rudder, is mounted on top of the tail engine banjo.
The horizontal stabilizer and its four-segment elevator, is attached to the sides of the rear fuselage in the conventional manner.
The airliner has a retractable tricycle landing gear. To enable higher gross weights, the later -30 and -40 series have an additional two-wheel main landing gear, which retracts into the center of the fuselage.
The CF6-50 series are high-bypass turbofan engines rated between 51,000 and 54,000 lb (227.41 to 240.79 kN) of thrust.
The CF6-50 was developed into the LM5000 industrial turboshaft engines.
It was launched in 1969 to power the long range McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30, and was derived from the earlier CF6-6.
In late 1969, the CF6-50 was selected to power the then new Airbus A300.
Air France became the launch customer for the A300 by ordering six aircraft in 1971.
In 1975, KLM was the first airline to order the Boeing 747 powered by the CF6-50.
This led further developments to the CF6 family such as the CF6-80.
