N441UP

This airframe, registered as N441UP, is a Boeing 757-24A(PF) built in 1994 with manufacturer serial number 27386. The aircraft is owned by UNITED PARCEL SERVICE CO (a corporation based in Louisville, KY, US) and is maintained and operated in a cargo role from that operator’s Louisville base; it is registered in the US. The airframe carries a main-deck freighter conversion and has no passenger cabin, reflecting its long-term use in dedicated cargo service. Recorded ownership and registry entries reflect conversion to a freighter role and continuous operation by UPS, with condition and valuation treated within corporate asset schedules rather than public commercial listings.

The aircraft’s cabin is a main-deck freighter (PF) conversion; there is no passenger cabin and the interior is configured for palletized and containerized cargo on the main deck. Avionics fit is consistent with a 757 freighter conversion standard for the type and operator, focused on cargo dispatch, navigation, and operational reliability rather than passenger amenities. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include medium- to long-range cargo sectors up to its published range of 3,920 nm, operating predominantly from and within the operator’s Louisville hub. Maintenance considerations center on heavy-cycle freighter usage and RB211 engine support under UPS’s corporate maintenance program, with logistics optimized for high-utilization cargo operations.

The Boeing 757-200 freighter conversions occupy a niche for operators needing transcontinental and transoceanic medium‑capacity cargo capability with a cruise near 458 kts and a service ceiling of 42,000 ft. Competing models in the used freighter market include narrowbody freighter conversions based on other 757 variants and older widebody freighters in different payload/range segments. Buyer demand for converted 757 freighters reflects their combination of payload, range, and runway performance, while resale and maintenance considerations emphasize engine shop visits for the RB211 series and airframe fatigue given the type’s service life since 1994.
