Posted: Thu Mar 01, 2018 7:45 pmThe A340 was the most elegant design since the Comet 4. The -500 version seemed just right, to me. The -600s are just a tad too long in front. Great pic

Hehe - a normal flare would probly put the cockpit outside the approach minima.
And as Lindstrim points out, all the 4-engined airliners of that era are very leisurely at take-off, compared to those big 777s and the like, which really only need one engine to get off the ground.
