Airbus A330 series aircraft includes five types, namely A330-200 passenger plane, A330-300 passenger plane, A330-200F cargo plane, ACJ330 business jet and A330MRTT military transport plane. It is a dual-engine wide-body aircraft covering all market segments.
On June 5, 1987, Airbus started the development of two models, A340 and A330. The first A330 made its first flight (registration number F-WWKA) on November 2, 1992, with CF6 turbofan engine. On October 21, 1993, it was awarded the type certificate of JAA and FAA, delivered in December of the same year, and put into operation in January of the following year.
As for the airframe, A330 is designed from A300, but its nose, cab and fly-by-wire control are from A320. The A330 is also one of the few aircraft that can fly directly to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, where the airport is located above 3500 meters above sea level. Airbus will invest about 150 million euros every year to enhance and improve the performance of A330 series aircraft. Airbus has also announced that it will launch a lightweight A330-300 regional aircraft, which is expected to be put into operation in early 2015. This regional aircraft will be very suitable for use on fast-growing domestic routes and regional short-haul routes, such as China market and Asian market with dense passenger flow. On July 14th, 2014, Airbus announced that A330 will design a new model, namely A330neo, which is divided into A330-800neo and A330-900neo.
As of September 30, 2014, Airbus has received a total of 1,354 A330s, of which 1,120 have been delivered to customers, among which 106 operators operate 1,105 A330s.
