N605UP

This airframe, registered as N605UP, is a Boeing-built freighter completed in 2017 with manufacturer serial number 64252. It is recorded as owned by C C & E I LLC, an LLC based in Louisville, KY, US, and carries a US registration. The aircraft entered service as a main-deck cargo transporter and has remained with the same corporate owner in Louisville according to available registry data. Valued at approximately $115,000,000, the airframe represents a late-production example of its type with contemporary avionics fit and current-generation engines.

The aircraft is outfitted as a main-deck freighter with a palletized main deck, powered roller system and a nose cargo door, enabling high-density palletized cargo operations and nose-loading capability. Avionics are an integrated flightdeck by Rockwell Collins / Boeing fitted to operator specification, providing a modern cockpit suite for long-range cargo missions. Typical mission profiles for this airframe are medium- to long-range freight services exploiting its 4,265 nm range and high cruise speed, operating from its owner/operator base in Louisville, KY. The minimal passenger accommodation of 8 seats indicates a flight-crew and attendant configuration rather than passenger transport, and maintenance considerations focus on the GEnx engine family and the powered main-deck handling systems.

The Boeing 747-8F occupies the upper large-freighter niche, emphasizing high payload and nose-door loading flexibility; this airframe, a 2017 example, benefits from the GEnx-2B67 engines and modern avionics. Competing market alternatives typically include modern high-capacity freighters from other manufacturers, with demand driven by heavy-cargo operators and integrators needing palletized main-deck capacity. From a resale and maintenance perspective, late-build freighters such as this can command premium values driven by engine commonality, avionics upgrades and the presence of powered cargo handling systems, factors reflected in the stated $115,000,000 valuation.
