Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N129UP, is an Airbus-built freighter completed in 2001 with manufacturer serial number 813. The airframe is an Airbus A300F4-622R originally produced by AIRBUS INDUSTRIE and is owned by UNITED PARCEL SERVICE CO (a corporation based in Louisville, KY, US). The aircraft carries a US registration and has been operated in a dedicated cargo role under its current corporate ownership; no additional ownership transfers or registry actions are recorded in the supplied data. Condition and valuation highlights are not published in the provided data.
The fuselage is configured as a freighter with a main-deck pallet/ULD cargo arrangement that is LD3-compatible, reflecting a layout optimized for unit load devices and palletized international cargo operations. As a corporate-operated freighter for UNITED PARCEL SERVICE CO, typical mission profiles for this specific airframe include medium- to long-range trunk routes within intercontinental and transoceanic networks consistent with a 4,050 nm range and a cruise speed near 450 kts. The aircraft’s twin Pratt & Whitney PW4158 engines, each rated at 58,000 lbf, support operations up to the certified service ceiling of 40,000 ft, with maintenance considerations focusing on heavy freighter airframe and engine cycles typical of high-utilization logistics carriers. Avionics fit, interior finishes beyond cargo fittings, and specific maintenance status are not published in the supplied data.
The Airbus A300F4-622R occupies a niche as a widebody twin-engined freighter tailored to high-capacity palletized cargo work, offering payload and range suited to major integrator networks. Competing types in the used freighter market include older widebody conversions and original-production freighters from other manufacturers; demand for this model is driven by operators needing LD3-compatible main-deck carriage and robust twin-engine performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial (813) emphasize airframe cycle history and Pratt & Whitney PW4158 shop visit status, which are key determinants of remaining economic life but are not detailed in the supplied data.
