Server: Expert

Region: United States

Airport: KBFI

Time: 2400Z

NOTAM: In celebration of reaching the 1,500-hour landmark at UPS Virtual, the staff are retiring their old fleet of Boeing 747-400s and are inaugurating the newer, more efficient, more powerful Boeing 747-8. This event will be the official 747-8 delivery flight for UPS Virtual, during which as many as 12 new aircraft will be flown from the Boeing Factory to UPS Virtual’s WorldPort. Although the 747-8 does not have the UPS livery right now, we hope to see it added in the future. See you there!
