RESEARCH NOTES

About N147UP

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

The airframe bearing tail number N147UP is an Airbus-built freighter, model Airbus A300F4-622R (A300-600F), delivered in 2002 with manufacturer serial number 830. This aircraft is owned by United Parcel Service Co, a corporation based in Louisville, KY, US, and is US-registered under the designation US. Operated by United Parcel Service from its Louisville hub, the airframe is configured and maintained for main-deck palletized cargo work. Registry and valuation details beyond ownership and basic configuration are not published.

Operations & Cabin

The aircraft is outfitted in a main-deck freighter palletized (ULD/pallet) configuration optimized for express cargo and typical UPS mission profiles, including short- to medium-haul scheduled freight rotations. Avionics and specific equipment fitment for N147UP follow the standard A300-600F operator fit used by major integrators, supporting routine airline-style flight crew operations from a consolidated maintenance base in Louisville. Typical operational employment emphasizes high-frequency, time-sensitive feeder and trunk routes within the continental U.S. and to nearby international points within the aircraft’s 2,900 nm range. Maintenance considerations focus on two-shift PW4000-series engine upkeep and airframe support consistent with a high-utilization freighter under corporate airline maintenance programs.

Model & Market Context

The Airbus A300F4-622R (A300-600F) occupies a niche as a medium-capacity, twin-engine widebody freighter offering substantial main-deck pallet capability while remaining cost-effective on short- to medium-range missions. Competing models in this payload and range class include converted Boeing 767 freighters and older DC-10/MD-11 freighters, with demand driven by integrator networks and cargo operators seeking reliable, palletized main-deck capacity. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe center on airframe hours, PW4000 engine shop visit cycles, and the logistics of supporting main-deck freighter modifications and ULD handling systems for continued service in express cargo fleets.
