Now that's hauling some freight. Heaviest Boeing takeoff ever. 1,005,000 pounds.

Beyond WOW !! :shock:

Just checked the Atlas and Titans Charters and don't see any flights for the 748F. Are we planning to add them to the fleet and charters??

Atlas/Polar do not have any 748's yet. I believe Cargolux got some recently.
