Airbus A330-303, registered VH-QPH and named "Noosa" after the Queensland coastal town, flies for Qantas as part of the carrier's fleet of A330-300s supporting trans-Tasman and regional Australian international routes. Qantas continues its long tradition of naming aircraft after Australian towns and cities across its A330 fleet, connecting these aircraft symbolically to the communities they serve. As part of this fleet, VH-QPH has flown extensively between Australia and New Zealand as well as regional Asia-Pacific routes including Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Singapore, supporting Qantas's role as Australia's flag carrier.
Please note: An optional display stand is available separately if you wish to display this model "in-flight".
Designed as a wide-bodied, long-haul passenger transport to compete with the Boeing 767, the A330 was first flown on November 2nd, 1992. It was designed as a lengthened version of the A300 and was developed in parallel with the larger, four-engined A340, enabling many of the components to be shared between the three types. The A330 also uses the same fly-by-wire technology that was introduced with the A320, featuring a glass cockpit and side-stick controllers. The A330 has the same range and payload capacity as a DC-10 with 25% greater fuel efficiency. © Copyright 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
