Built in 1993 and delivered to Japan Air Lines in April 1994, JA8582 was the third out of ten MD-11 serving with the Japanese flag carrier. Initially dubbed J-Bird in JAL service, this name was dropped shortly before the carrier was split into an international and a domestic entity in April 2004.

JA8582 had received the new livery created for the split already in late 2003, and as such was captured on finals to runway 14 on a scheduled service from Tokyo-Narita. All JAL aircraft carry a UNICEF insignia, as the carrier has been a long-standing contributor to the UNICEF Change for Good programme.

The career of the MD-11 with JAL was rather short, as all ten had been retired by late 2004, with JA8582 being the last one leaving the fleet in October 2004. It was acquired by UPS, converted to cargo, and served as a UPS parcel freighter for a good 20 years before it was retired at Roswell in early 2024. It is now in use as a spares source.
