Ecco cosa ho trovato:

"Package delivery firm, FedEx, have been closely examining a possible Boeing 767-400ERF, as part of the company's fleet renewal programme. To date, the airline has 72 McDonnell Douglas MD-10s, which are due for retirement in the coming years. Hence, the carrier is looking at possible replacements for the type, including the 767-400ERF.

Reports from inside the company have been suggesting that the Airbus A330-200F has been closely looked at, however it has now emerged that Boeing's possible alternative may result in being a better option. Whilst a freighter variant of the 767-400ER currently isn't in production, it is likely that a large order, such as that from FedEx, would prompt Boeing into producing the type. But the 767 has a special advantage for FedEx that Airbus' alternative cannot offer; price."

Pensavo che l'Alitalia li potrebbe comprare a prezzi competitivi per sostuire i 767-300 che usciranno dalla flotta a breve....Pensavo!
 
Per Boeing sarebbe un bel colpo. Peccato che la versione pax non abbia avuto grande successo con (se non ricordo male) due soli acquirenti; Delta e Continental.
 
sarebbe un buon fit per FEDEX: sul medio raggio si muove merce generalmente poco densa e la macchina ha costi d' esercizio ancora competitivi; probabilmente sarebbe una flotta con soluzioni avioniche aggiornate.
