Airbus A340
With exception of the number of
engines the A340-200 and -300 are nearly identical to the A330-200 and -300.
For the A340-500 and -600 not only span and fuselage length have been enlarged
but also wing chord, horizontal stabilizer and engines. The A340-600 has one of
the longest fuselages of all airliners in service worldwide. 379 planes of all versions have been built
until production was terminated in 2011.
Because of its size this modelplane
requires a lot of time for building but the flight characteristics are
phantastic. This plane is easy to fly and looks great in flight.
