I wonder how many Mk3s are on UPS214...

https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS214

This appears to be the only plane from CGN to SDF, and it flys round trip once a day. So any american MK3's will be on this flight. Mine claimed to leave CGN at 3:05AM local time, which is totally not possible, as UPS214 took off at 9:24PM local time. So I'm guessing there's a little bit of fudgery going on with UPS's numbers!

For anyone interested in the return flight just to see where the plane is in any given 24 hour period, it is UPS213

So I'm sitting here watching this plane, which most likely has my MK3 on it... screaming why is it running 27 minutes late!!!

EDIT: I just got an update. It's at Clearance again. So I'm highly doubting it actually left CGN. So I'm gonna assume it's not on that plane. 😕

Mine supposedly departed Koeln at at 9:11pm local time, so it very well might be on this flight as well. If it is, I'm amazed, as mine only got picked up by UPS on Monday.

That sounds like an accurate time. As the plane likely left the dock at 9:11, and the takeoff, was 13 minutes later at 9:24.

I would guess yours is on there. I just got an update, and apparently mine is still stuck in clearance. (even though up until 30 minutes ago, UPS claimed a tomorrow delivery, which would mean it was on that plane)

I can see all the UPS planes on their landing approach from where I live. 🙂

I used to work ~50 miles from the airport directly under landing approach, and on occasion we would have the occasional UPS plane come in SUPER low (I would guess under 5000ft), and shake our break area.

If it was clear I could have watched this plane fly overhead for nearly 15-20 minutes.

Re: I wonder how many Mk3s are on UPS214...

This thread is needed. It's good to have a light hearted posting.
But then again my printer won't be sent for 2 more weeks 12 hours and seven minutes. What if the plane is down for maintenance?
I'll have to look into their maintenance schedules and see if the plane is being properly serviced.
What if...

What...me worry 😆

MK2S & Mk3 my mini farm is alive 😆

Really odd, mine came in to new ark last night. It hoped on another flight to Louisville, and is waiting to go to my local UPS.

This is the first prusa I've seen on here that didn't go to Louisville(SDF) from Cologne(CGN) directly.
