   Russian 747-8Fs find a new home

   Three Boeing 747-8Fs that previously flew for Russian AirBridgeCargo are   
   starting a new life in the US. The aircraft were recalled by leasing company   
   BOC Aviation after the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent   
   sanctions. Now a new user has been found for the jumbos.   
       
   The aircraft are being added to the fleet of Atlas Air, the world's largest   
   user of cargo 747s with fifty units in service. Among them are four   
   747-400LCFs, which are used to transport fuselage parts of the 787 Dreamliners   
   on behalf of aircraft manufacturer Boeing. In addition, Boeing 737s, 767s and   
   777s are being flown.   
       
   The three additional 747-8Fs will be delivered in the third quarter of this   
   year.
