Japan Airlines, MD-11 J Bird (JA8580)

Unused, as-new card. That doesn’t begin to tell the story. Google has outdone itself. Eventually this aircraft (JA8580) went to UPS and was re-registered as N272UP. But before that, on 8 June 1997, this plane as flight 706 left Hong Kong for Nagoya and “experienced abrupt pitch oscillations while in descent for landing,” and of 180 persons on board, 12 were injured. Could that be one reason why the plane went to UPS? Grade: 1
