Photographer’s remark

N256UP The former PP-VPK (in full VARIG colors) is now owned by UPS. Arrived @ HNL from MZJ and headed to Singapore for freighter conversion. The flight had to turn back to HNL due to maintenance problems. 256 still has "PK" on the tail and nose gear door, and the Brazilian flag.
