N467UP

The airframe bearing tail number N467UP is a Boeing 757-24A(PF) built in 1997 with manufacturer serial number 25483. It is owned by UNITED PARCEL SERVICE CO, a corporation based in Louisville, KY, US, and is registered in the US registry. The airframe is a main-deck freighter conversion configured for cargo operations and has been operated from its owner's primary hub in Louisville. Acquisition by UNITED PARCEL SERVICE CO and continued deployment in parcel freight operations are the principal highlights of this aircraft's service history.

The aircraft is equipped in a cargo (freighter) main-deck cargo configuration, with no passenger seating and a layout optimized for unit load device and bulk cargo handling. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include short- to medium-haul express parcel routes within North America, operating from United Parcel Service’s Louisville hub and other regional bases. Avionics and specific onboard equipment details are not published here, but maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its role in high-cycle freight service, where structural inspections, cargo door mechanism servicing, and engine time-on-wing management for the Rolls-Royce RB211-535E4 powerplants are operational priorities. The aircraft’s configuration supports high utilization and frequent turnarounds typical of integrator fleet operations.

The Boeing 757-24A(PF) sits in the medium narrow-body freighter niche, offering longer range and higher payload capability than many regional freighters while being more economical on short to medium sectors than larger widebody freighters. Competing types in the converted freighter market include other 757 variants and smaller widebody freighters for higher-capacity needs. For buyers and operators, considerations center on airframe cycle life, availability of RB211 parts and overhaul capacity, and demand from integrators and charter operators for a reliable, mid-capacity freighter with transcontinental capability.
