Airbus A330-343, serial number 1156, entered service with Singapore Airlines as 9V-STR in October 2010 before later joining Air Canada as C-GKUH. Acquired by Air Canada in October 2019, the aircraft was subsequently reconfigured for the carrier's long haul network. Powered by two Rolls-Royce Trent 772B engines, C-GKUH operates transatlantic and other international services from Air Canada's major hubs, including Montreal. The A330-300 combines substantial passenger and cargo capacity with dependable long range performance, and C-GKUH remains active with Air Canada in 2026.
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.
