During the 2000s, UPS Airlines issued an 8-card set of UPS Airlines Cargo Fleet advertising non-sports trading cards. These advertising cards were designed to showcase the aircraft that UPS Airlines were using during the 2000s for their fleet of jet cargo aircraft. It’s interesting to note that the cards were issued prior to 2 March 2007 since one of the cards was an Airbus A380F in UPS livery. UPS Airline canceled their order for ten Airbus A380Fs on that date, so even though the set shows the card as been part of the UPS fleet, this never happened. As shown above, the backs of the cards featured the basic specifications for each of the various aircraft.
