Early and late versison of GE engines as you can see the difference of round and pointy cone.
Wing cone (where flaps are) modified on late MD-11 (1996? or so til the end of MD-11 prod) Any built before that year didn't have wing cone. Do research at Delta N815DE The only one MD-11 that have cone in DL's 15 MD-11 fleets. or late model in Finnair's fleet say... The last passenger MD-11 built reg ends E not sure if more before E or after E as they bought a few from other airliners into their fleet. or Look at last Lufthanasa's MD-11. Not sure if all of LH MD-11 comes with wing cones as LH placed an order much late. Whar a Partypooper!
Wiper bladers modified to up position from horizon position for aerodymic improvements.
Some other minor areas for aerodyminc modified? I think?
DH will explain way better than I do. No worries.....
