A lot I'm sure! Here's a post from one of my favorite accounts on twitter-- Miami Rick. Miami Rick pilots a Boeing 747-8F and posts about interesting cargo being hauled from far off locations. In this case, 100 tons of flowers from Ecuador:
Oh, wow! Of course you would be in the know about my very specific question! I'll keep Miami Rick's contact on file to procure us wildflowers and zinnias in March ;)
Hopefully we don't need a full 747 (a 767 should suffice) for organza for the Upchurch-OConnor wedding, but he's definitely a good contact to have on file! 🦓
Certainly! I love the idea of a conversion- giving a jet a second life! Sounds like the market is also enthusiastic about them, but maybe too much so as there has been (anecdotally) a supply glut of the BCFs in recent years.
I wonder how many fresh flowers equates to 120 tons...and if they can vacuum-pack them to save space :D

Interesting to see how the A321ceo and A330-200 are becoming popular conversion freighters!
