Squeeky clean
 
The funny thing is, almost all of those shots were done during normal ops. All UPS aircraft are kept amazingly clean. For an operation that runs at night with no logo lights, we sure like to spend the money buffing these jets down every day of the week. Just like the trucks: brown, but shiney brown.:)

Must have been a former Navy pilot the way he planted that first landing.

:D

I agree. Those planes are spotless. Not a drop of oil out of place. I am constantly amazed at how clean they are.

That landing caused a Jepp/Lido change to lower the TDZ elevation by at least 5 feet!
