Quote: Atlas only commenced operations in 1992 with one 747-200 on lease to China Airlines. Air France was the launch customer for the -400f, but it appears that Cargolux became the customer for the first one.
What info do you have that the later Classics were fitted with a stab tank?

#1 The Cargolux A/C came after the first 400 freighter that came off the line at Boeing as a freighter, not a converted A/C.

#2 I fly them and 2 of our 200's and our remaining 300 had the stab tank but have had them removed.
