Atlas Air 747 at Phoenix Sky Harbor
September 15, 2018



I visited Sky Harbor on September 15 to photograph an Atlas Air 747 departing for Los Angeles with the Arizona Cardinals football team. They played the Los Angeles Rams, losing 34 to 0.

Atlas Air Boeing 747-481 N263SG first flew on March 3, 1999. Its construction number is 29263. It was delivered to All Nippon Airways as JA404A on March 30, 1999. Oasis Hong Kong Airlines acquired it as B-LFC on April 24, 2007 and ceased operations on April 9, 2008. Wells Fargo Bank acquired it on July 10, 2008. Atlas Air has leased it since April 1, 2010.
