N432UP

The airframe bearing tail number N432UP is a Boeing-built freighter delivered in 1993, bearing manufacturer serial number 25463. It is owned by United Parcel Service Co, a corporation based in Louisville, KY, US, and is registered in the US. The type is maintained in a full palletized main-deck freighter configuration and has been operated for dedicated cargo service from its owner’s Louisville base; any registry entries and operator changes are limited to its recorded corporate ownership with UPS. Condition notes specific to this airframe are not published beyond its freighter conversion and continuous cargo role.

This airframe is fitted in a full main-deck palletized freighter (APF) cargo configuration, optimized for unit load devices and palletized payloads on the main deck rather than passenger accommodation. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft leverage its published cruise speed of 458 kts and range of 3,900 nm to perform medium- to long-range cargo rotations from its operator base in Louisville, KY, including domestic transcontinental services and regional international sectors within range. Avionics fit and crew configuration details are not published; maintenance considerations are strongly influenced by the twin Pratt & Whitney PW2040 engines and the logistics of large main-deck freighter operations, including pallet handling systems and scheduled structural inspections for an airframe built in 1993.

As a member of the Boeing 757 family built by Boeing, the Boeing 757-24APF configuration represented by this airframe combines moderate transoceanic range with a high cruise speed and substantial main-deck payload capability as manifested in its 178-seat nominal arrangement before conversion. The twin PW2040 powerplants with 41,700 lbf thrust apiece underpin the type’s performance envelope to 42,000 ft, which factors into operator planning and maintenance cycles. Resale and lifecycle considerations for this specific 1993-built freighter are driven by its freighter conversion, remaining structural hours, and engine time since these data points determine continued utility in UPS’s cargo network.
