Boeing 747 Fleet
For the removal of any doubt, the 747 fleet is operated by Cathay Pacific, not Cathay Pacific Cargo. The pilots operating the 747 fleet are 747 passenger pilots, employed by Cathay Pacific and trained by Cathay Pacific. The 747's are registered to Cathay Pacific. The 747 is a Cathay Pacific aircraft, regardless of what it says on the aircraft livery. — Preceding unsigned comment added by B747in852 (talk • contribs) 01:48, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

Possible corrections: Fleet History
I’ve got a magazine which has a detailed fleet history, showing how many aircraft of each type were operated by Cathay, so the boxes which say ‘Unknown’ could be updated, but I don’t know the etiquette, nor do I have the technical ability to do this myself; some of the data is different from what is currently listed:

The source is ‘Air International’ magazine, vol. 50 no. 2, February 1996, pub. Key Publishing, Stamford, U.K., page 82. It states:

Boeing 707: 12 aircraft (table currently shows only 11)

Consolidated Catalina: 2 aircraft from 1948–1949 (not currently listed in table)

Convair 880: 9 aircraft (table currently shows only 8)

Douglas DC-3: 7 aircraft

Douglas DC-4: 2 aircraft

Douglas DC-6: 2 aircraft from 1954-1962 (different dates from table; only one was a DC-6B)

Lockheed L-188 Electra: 2 aircraft

Lockheed L-1011 TriStar: 20 aircraft (table currently shows only 19)

747F Silver Bullet
I am not familiar with planes but found some interesting facts. I plan to add information about the 2006 silver bullet cargo planes under the Special liveries section. I have found a list of such planes, model information are from planespotters.net. I have read that the original plan was to convert 14 747s, but my list only has 13 (this says Cathay had 14 747F at that time, but the number of 2F and 4F does not match with my list). Please note that B-HUQ probably was not a silver bullet, there is a photo of B-HUO incorrectly tagged as HUQ, you can see "UO" on the nose wheel cover. If you have more information on this topic, or know more planes that are missing in my list, feel free to add them. I have started a topic on the Chinese page.

B-HUH 4F

B-HUK 4F

B-HUL 4F

B-HUO 4F

B-HUP 4F

B-HUR 4 4F

B-HUS 4 4F

B-HKH 4 4F

B-HKJ 4 4F

B-HKS 4 4F

B-HIH 2 2F (first silver bullet)

B-HMD 2M 2F (used in tenet movie)
