Another great success for the A330 ! 2013 sales had been sluggish so far. This is welcome news. That amazing program does not want to die, in spite of attacks from younger competitors ! |

No idea why they're going with GE engines, but okay. |

No idea why they're going with GE engines, but okay. Financing, and not sure if PW will be offered in the 242t version? |

Will there be any testing required when Airbus launches the 242t variant?

Will there be any way to identify from its designator if the A330 is a 242t version, like of today where we have the E and X on some models, or do you just have to know?

Airbud has started assembly on MSN1627, which is the first 242t 330-300, going to Delta
Is this built ahead of sequence? It should be a while untill the MSN's in these range usually should have started assembly? Is this a certain, but small, level of testing needed as this is a first aircraft with improved MTOW?

A quote from that article (last line):
Missing something here? The A340 is still offered for sale but AB clearly does not expect to sell it anymore.
