Viewing old Macbook Air via new Macbook Pro screen

I have a Macbook Air mid 2011 (model A1369) and a MacBook Pro 2017.  I would like the MB pro to connect to the old MBA (which has a broken LCD screen so cannot view it properly) and see the display contents.

Can I do this wirelessly.

Hello,

have you tried Mac internal screen sharing?

Can you still operate the MBA a litle bit?

External options can be VNC or TeamViewer.

Easier to just pop out the Air's disk + pop the disk in to a disk dock.
Any option to connect an external screen to the 2011 with the broken LCD and configure or transfer the data.

A dock with additional display.
