Boeing 747-400F

The mainstay of the heavy air cargo market, taking both nose and side loading at scale.

Heavy freight

Thirty main deck positions with two ways to load

Capacity runs to 120000 kg in 750 m3, with 30 ULD positions on the main deck and nine below, plus a 340cm by 312cm side door alongside the nose opening. Two loading paths mean mixed consignments get built in parallel.

Choose it for heavy project cargo, livestock, vehicles or relief airlift where one aircraft has to do the whole job. The 5100 km figure quoted here is a heavy payload range, so a full load across an ocean needs a technical stop.
