The MD-11’s wing is basically the same as the DC-10-30’s, just slightly tweaked aerodynamically and now with a lot of composite parts–nothing you can see without slicing it apart to see the airfoil shape or materials.

Wing angle of incidence was positive at the root, twisting subtly to negative at the wingtip. The wing featured full-span two-position leading-edge slats, with two slat segments inboard of the engine, six outboard. Trailing-edge flight controls included, from the wing root outward: An inboard double slotted flap, with a single spoiler in front.
