Marty biggrin.gif , I do like a few of the ARBUST products ohmy.gif , I don't have the 330 but do have the 340 ... seems i can fly these not so bad .. least the many years ago i brought it .. SHITE MUSLIM .. five plus years back , these are impressive .. 340 being notable with its France to New Zealand flight .. the longest range airliner in the world back in 1986 and then having many , near always stop here in Wobblyville every day depending on airline .

Singapore , and Emirates , the two that used to stop here.... but now both use 777's.

I have a couple of Singapore girls stopping here tonight due to disruptions....both dread getting onto the A-380....Not because its an Airbus, but just the amount of work involved. SQ have cut staff numbers on a lot of long haul flights, and these kids really work their tails off as it is , without the extra pax.

Yeah!
A340-500 has to be one of the best-proportioned airliners built... and I know the Wing Commander concurs!
Singapore: yes, but (despite myself) the best treatment I ever had was on a SAL Megatop 747.
Not to mention the self-flushing loos at Changi, when they were still science fiction.

Without a Brussel Sprout smile.gif .. the 'Airbus A330/340' class have there own label and design coming from the 300/310 series .. think they stewed it to much trying to beat the Boeing Classic's , you have many great planes from the stables of the many company's .. its when they try to compare and compete with such a already well proven design .. course the going away from some of the the redundant backups .. maybe a few years later , just maybe

From history , the Boeing 737 started out with a glorious start and never looked back , i grew up with them , i have history books on them , i have doco's on them ......... same cant be to be said about the Welcome to New Zealand Airbus 320 , .. another trip across the Tasman , booked for a Boeing , I choose the aircraft .. then to be placed on a Airbus .... OK .. least i had my window seat , but its not a good start to be boarded then taken off - 2/3 hours - again then boarded on a so called brand new aircraft .

Never had this on a Boeing .. my history of flights , always was the Airbus breaking down .. so hence my ARBUST again . again .. maybe they should fly me on a two-seater MirageIII or something that compares cool.gif

Looks really good. I know it's not your area, but what are the internal/systems like?
