After Fed-ex Purchased a fleet of these aircraft 2 years ago, UPS has been out-competed year after year. after some debate, UPS finally gave in, and purchased these to replace there aging 747 fleet.
Since the aircraft had been flying for a while, UPS got the newer version, but the only change was the winglet design for better yaw stability.
PLEASE NOTE: During takeoff roll, it is best recommended to wait until the back wheels come off the ground before liftoff for more stable performance.
