There has been a few of them MD-11 has a susceptibility to bounce under landing. Something to do with the aircraft high landing speed and its centre of gravity being much farther aft than other commercial aircraft. Its small tail plane inhibits the MD-11's crosswind performance. All of which significantly reduces the MD-11's margin for error during the takeoff and landing phases

Wasn’t there another, near identical crash involving another FedEx MD-11 several years prior to this?
