Queen lives on in cargo: brand new Boeing 747-8F joins UPS fleet - Aerotime Hub
On September 3, 2020, UPS received its 17th Boeing 747-8F. Three more aircraft are going to be delivered by the end of the year.
While the pandemic continues to wreak havoc across the aviation industry, airlines like Qantas and British Airways have retired the Queen of the Skies after her 50-year reign. The same, however, could not be said about United Parcel Service (UPS) in the United States.
The cargo carrier has received a brand new 747-8F (registered as N622UP) and has 12 more on order as of September 4, 2020. The new aircraft, once delivered, will bring the UPS royal fleet up to a total of 29 aircraft.
