N304UP

This entry covers airframe N304UP, a freighter conversion of the Boeing narrow‑body family delivered in 1995 with manufacturer serial number 27242. The airframe is a factory-built freighter variant listed as Boeing 767-34AF (767-300F) and is registered in the United States. It is owned by UNITED PARCEL SERVICE CO, a corporation based in Louisville, KY, US, and has been operated in a cargo role from that operator’s hub; no specific public registry actions or change-of-ownership events are published in the provided data. The aircraft is categorized as a fixed‑wing multi‑engine freighter and retains configuration and condition notes consistent with a main‑deck freighter conversion and active cargo use.

The airframe is fitted as a main‑deck freighter with a large forward side cargo door and multiple lower‑hold container positions, delivering an approximate main‑deck cargo volume of 15,469 cu ft suitable for palletized and containerized express freight. Typical mission profiles for this operator include medium‑ to long‑range cargo sectors consistent with the stated ferry and operational range, flown from the owner’s base in Louisville with frequent high‑cycle turnarounds and ramp handling demands. Avionics fit and specific configurations are not published in the supplied data; maintenance considerations for this individual example align with older CF6‑powered 767 freighters, including engine program adherence and airframe structural inspections driven by heavy cargo use and high flight cycles.

The Boeing 767-34AF (767-300F) occupies a mid‑sized freighter niche offering a balance of payload, range and operating economics for integrator fleets. Its twin CF6 powerplants and roughly 3,225 nm range make it competitive against similar wide‑body and converted narrow‑body freighters in feeder and transcontinental roles. Market demand for this family is typically driven by cargo integrators and ACMI operators; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect age (built 1995), engine shop visit history, and the durability of main‑deck freighter conversions.
