Default Ups 777?

I swore I heard Indy Center talking to a crew of a brand new 777 of which I heard the UPS callsign being used. Did your company by some?

Nope. Not until they are used, and they can get them cheaper.

It could've been that, but center was asking when did, who ever it was, get a T7 and asked did it have a "new plane smell". Also they called the traffic out to another UPS flight as their "future" in front of them.

Oh well......

That's what I thought I was hearing until the controller told a UPS flight that their future was flying past. I most have smoked too much crack on my overnight and just heard wrong
