Also note the small-ish market for outsize lift, now exclusively flown by the Ukrainans and the two OEMs.

Well, I don't fly for the Ukrainians and I do carry a good bit of oversized freight that goes in and out the nose of a 74.

But there is a huge difference in nose loading a B747 vs the C-5/An-124 types. C-5 was 17x17, admittedly not as reliable. :p

GF But my point still stands -- there is a lot of oversize freight going on and off 747s every day through their nose doors that can not go on conventional freighters. And it is high yield cargo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQ-t22GcNww |
