The A330 is on lease from BMI. Its not an ex, they haven’t brought it from them.

It must be as they are just using 2 bmi 330’s for crew training in preparation for the arrival of their own 340’s.

Lovely Pics. I have a display model of the -600 in the older red/white scheme of Virgin Atlantic-but doesn’t look as long as this!

Thanks for digging them out A330, some good quality stuff there.
That Hapag Lloyd Express is quite revolting…!!
Although the A340-600 looks good, I’m not too keen. I think an aircraft can get so long before it starts to look a little silly. This has certainly gone way over the mark.
What is the seating capacity for Airbus’ latest?

Just love the SAA colour scheme. Even for an all white aircraft the tail colours really top it of. Cant wait to see the A340-600 in full colour scheme. Thanks for the pics Andrew
