(More customer reviews)Last title in the nice Airlife's airliners series, examines in detail the successful Airbus big brothers.
Particularly interesting and accurate the chapter on development, and also the technical description. It is a pity that the engines are only superficially described, but notwithstanding this, (and a few mis-printed photos) the volume is at a very high standard.
It is also well updated, with many infos on the "big Buses" a340-500 and -600.
Recommended to all jetliners fans!

The initial production version of the A330 was designated -300. It flies with a crew of two and can accommodate up to 440 passengers to a range of 6,329 miles at Mach 0.86. The A330 was the first Airbus design to be offered with engines from all three major manufacturers - General Electric, Pratt & Whitney and Rolls-Royce. Both the A340 and the A330 are built to a common design with wings swept to 30 degrees with nine foot winglets, the difference being the A330 is powered by two engines and the A340 by four.
