Steve,

I'd be worried about fitting such a high mileage turbo to your car

FedEx Express, a subsidiary of FedEx Corp. (NYSE: FDX), announced today that it will be first to take delivery of the giant Airbus A380-800F in August 2008 and the first to deploy the plane in service for its global customers.

I guess just like UPS the other parcel carriers also have their own fleet of freight aircraft? I.E. DHL, Fed Ex, Parcel Force Worldwide?

Yeah they all own a certain amount and lease so many more.

With the exception of Parcelforce, they use daily BA flights for most of theirs
