Kalitta in Khabarovsk

[spitfire1500]

I was in UHHH about 10 hours ago. Man what a beautiful day. There wasn't a cloud in the sky and it was somewhat warm! It would have been a great day to 'break' in UHHH.

NOthing but trouble in KHV.....my wife was born there !! If it's still there the B52 club is a good time....it's right in the main square downtown.

I had no Idea you would have to make a TECH stop on that leg.

vhhh-panc is too long for a -200 747, unless you have ~100K of freight onboard. If you only have 100K of crap leaving Hong Kong, someone made an oops.


We use rjgg or rjcc as stops.

Seems like UPS didn't make stop in their -200's? Or did they?

Clear for takeoff Conya.....good luck.

On average, UPS freight will bulk out the plane before it is at max ZFW.

We can get ~230K on a HKG-NGO-ANC flight. When we fly for UPS, the airplane is full at ~69-70K.

Wow, big difference. What type of background to Kalitta pilots have? Hours, etc?

 

[Captain Oveur]

Cool....sounds more interesting anyway than
stopping for fuel in Oklahoma City on the way
from El Paso to Detroit. I'm jealous, Kalitta guys
