New B747F project
Boeing is to announce a B747-400 Special Freighter conversion programme to be undertaken at the TAECO complex at Xiamen, southern China. Converted -400s will have a payload of 95 tonnes, 10 less than a factory-built -400F and a slightly shorter range. They will replace 'noisy' -200Fs.

Huh, payload seems to be not the one industry has expected?
