UPS Airlines has ordered 14 more 747-8 Freighters, which will take its 747-8 F fleet to 28 by 2022.
The same ground handling and cargo loading equipment is used for the 747-8F as the 747-400F.
The 747-8F is used by UPS Airlines on its key trunk routes from its Worldport base in Louisville to Asia and the Middle East.
General Electric GEnx-2B engines and a new wing are key differences between the 747-8 and its 747-400 predecessor.
This ex-KLM Boeing 747-400 was among the first aircraft to be dismantled at Twente Airport.
