I think you will find that ETOPS applies to twin engine aircraft only and that there is no distinction about what the payload is.

I think you will find AC120-42B has changed who and what ETOPS applies to. As far as the FAA and Kalitta is concerned anyway.

Any amount of engine + pax = ETOPS

2 engines + cargo = ETOPS

3+ engines + cargo = non-ETOPS
