UPS Officially Retires the MD-11: The End of a Tri-Jet Era

During its earnings call today, UPS officially confirmed what many in the aviation world have expected for some time: the retirement of the McDonnell Douglas MD-11 from its fleet. While the announcement itself was brief and business-focused, the implications are anything but small. With that statement, UPS closed the book on one of the last chapters of widebody tri-jet operations in mainstream commercial aviation.

They are inbound from #Aotearoa via #FedEx & due here Wednesday morning.

Den Rezensionen nach scheint #fedex hart um den Titel des schlechtesten Lieferdienstes der Welt zu kämpfen. Ich hoffe sie verkacken es bei mir nicht auch...

UPS Pilots Push for Stricter Crew Rest Rules to Match Passenger Airlines

When most travelers think about aviation safety, their minds naturally go to passenger airlines. Yet behind the scenes, cargo carriers move millions of tons of freight every year, often flying overnight, across multiple time zones, and into weather conditions that passenger airlines may try to avoid.
