N445UP

This airframe, registered as N445UP, is a Boeing-built freighter conversion of the passenger-derived model Boeing 757-24A(PF) completed in 1994 and carrying manufacturer serial number 27390. The airframe is the property of WILMINGTON TRUST CO OWNER TRUSTEE, a corporate trustee located in Wilmington, DE, and is registered in the US. The aircraft's configuration was altered to a main-deck palletized cargo layout with a two-crew flight deck; the current corporate trustee ownership has been the principal recorded custodial interest. Valuation and detailed condition reports are not publicly available and are therefore Not published.

The subject 757 is fitted with a main-deck palletized cargo cabin as a freighter conversion, retaining a flight deck for two crew and no standard passenger cabin seating in revenue service. Typical mission profiles for this conversion emphasize medium-to-long-range heavy pallet or container freight operations within the aircraft's published 3,150 nm range and cruise at approximately 458 kts, operating up to a service ceiling of 42,000 ft. Operational basing and line maintenance are associated with the registered ownership in Wilmington, Delaware, though specific commercial operators or leased-operator histories for this airframe are not disclosed in the available data. Maintenance considerations for this particular airframe include RB211-535E4 engine support and 757-series structural inspections consistent with freighter duty cycles and palletized loading arrangements.

The Boeing 757 family occupies a narrow-body, medium-range niche that blends substantial payload capability with transcontinental reach; the 757-200-derived freighter conversions like this airframe are commonly used by cargo carriers and integrators that need a cost-effective freighter with good runway performance. Competing types for similar missions include freighter-converted narrowbodies and smaller widebody freighters on high-utilization routes; buyer and charter demand is frequently driven by payload-range efficiency, life-cycle maintenance status, and availability of parts support for the RB211-535E4 engines. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific 1994-built airframe center on remaining structural life, freighter conversion integrity, and ongoing engine support agreements.
