Anyone have the UPS handout that was passed around during Capt's training?
The passenger version of the 777 can cover the distance from China but not the Freighter. Boeing's web site advertised the following data:
777 Freighter 4,885 NM 226k Payload
747 400 4,450 NM 248k Payload
747 800 4,420 NM 280k Payload
FYI.
