I note the short upper deck - means two different sets of jigs. For the
added weight, I'd have thought it would be less expensive to go with the
(now) standard EUD. I also see the different cowlings - does this
improve air flow or is it to mix fresh air with the exhaust gases?

no idea, photos taken at the plant, show them the same color,
but ones early this month, are just like this..

When she left here, was heading due north,
assume headed for Indianapolis, didn't catch the hand-off
on the radio.
Nor why she stopped here, except part of a "test"

Heard "unconfirmed" that UPS had ordered 2.
