Photo Comment
A nice quartet of various types in the UPS fleet. The Metroliner first flew in November 1983 and served with UPS until December 1996. To Pel Air Express as VH-EEO. Listed active at the time of the upload as N564TR with Sierra West Airlines (delivered December 2010). The 727 (ex. N7408U for UA and N497WC with Wien Air Alaska) was with UPS from September 1982 until June 1993. The DC-8 (ex. N123AF and N798FT) was operated by UPS from October 1984 until April 2009. The 747 seems to have been transitioning from AA (N9675) to UPS (N675UP). Also ex. OD-AGM with Trans Mediterranean Airways.
