Airbus A330-200, operated by Sichuan Airlines as B-5945. The A330-200 combines a shorter fuselage with long range, making it useful on intercontinental routes with moderate demand. Sichuan Airlines based much of its operation at Chengdu, using the aircraft to expand from a strong domestic network into longer international services while maintaining a predominantly Airbus fleet. The airframe represents the period in which long-range twinjets increasingly replaced older three- and four-engine aircraft, offering airlines lower fuel burn and maintenance costs while retaining the range needed for nonstop international flying.
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.
