N620UP

This article describes the specific freighter airframe bearing registration N620UP, a Boeing-built Boeing 747-8F completed in 2019 with manufacturer serial number 65787. The airframe is owned by C C & E I LLC, an LLC based in Louisville, KY, US, which serves as the registered owner and nominal operator/home base for administrative and maintenance activities. There are no published notable registry actions beyond its U.S. registration, and no separate historical ownership changes have been published for this airframe. Public condition and market valuation details are not published for this specific airframe.

The airframe is configured as a freighter with a palletized main-deck cargo arrangement complemented by a small flight-crew/passenger accommodation area fitted for 8 personnel. The cabin arrangement reflects typical 747-8F freight layouts: main-deck palletized cargo handling with forward and aft systems for cargo restraint, and a compact crew rest/office and passenger seating area for repositioning or ferry flights. Avionics fitment specific to this serial is not published; operational use centers on medium- to long-range cargo missions consistent with its 4,265 nm range and 490 kts cruise speed. Maintenance and scheduling would typically be managed from the owner’s Louisville, Kentucky base, with heavy checks and line maintenance following Boeing and GE GEnx program requirements.

The Boeing 747-8F occupies a niche as a large, long-range palletized freighter offering high payload and volume relative to twin-engined widebodies, here powered by four GE GEnx-2B67/P engines rated at 66,500 lbf each. Competing types in the heavy freighter market include four-engine and large twin designs, but the 747-8F remains distinctive for main-deck pallet capability and upward cargo volume. Buyer and charter demand for this model is driven by route networks requiring high volumetric capacity; maintenance and resale considerations emphasize engine and airframe hours, and the specialized large-freighter market can affect liquidity compared to smaller freighters.
