Hi, all. Would someone "in the know" please post a list of cargo operators and destinations (ideally with frequencies) at IAD? I'm trying to get a picture of the airport's overall traffic mix, etc.

Quoting FlyIGuy (Reply 1): DC8 ( it's an A300 right now )
DC-8's have been gone since May of 2009, it's a shame too.

Sorry, didn't know that...then im guessing it will be a 757, or A300 then but they did have an MD-11 after the last snow that shut the airport down, im guessing to catch up the back log of freight.

The MD-11 had nothing to do with the big snow storm in Dec, it was planned for the Christmas loads.

IAD has never really been big on all Cargo flights, but they certanily deal with lots of belly cargo on pax flights. UA of course is huge, as well as BA,AF,LH,QR and others.

All very true.
Charter cargo operations are somewhat frequent as well with ATI bringing in DC-8's the Antonov's working with Orbital down the road moving satellites, and the German Air Force operates numerous C-160s and an A310 once in a while to their air station off Aviation Dr.
This Saturday the scheduled CDG-ORD B747F will be making a stop in IAD at Cargo 5.

Quoting JohnClipper (Reply 8): I think SV flies in a freighter every once in a while...seen it there a few times...
They haven't for a few years and only when the Royal Family or King Abdullah visits...then they bring 2 or 3 freighters.
