A340-500 Air Canada

The A340 is a wide-body twin-engine jet airliner made by Airbus. The A340 was developed in parallel with the A330, which shared many common airframe components but differed in number of engines. Both airliners incorporated fly-by-wire flight control technology and six-display glass cockpit, first introduced on the A320 aircraft. This specific model is the A340-500, which was introduced as the world's longest-range commercial airliner. The A340-500 can fly 313 passengers in a three-class cabin layout over 8,650 nautical miles. It remained the world's longest-range commercial airliner until the introduction of its direct equivalent, Boeing 777-200LR, in February 2006. This specific model is painted in the Air Canada paint scheme. Air Canada is the flag carrier and largest airline of Canada. The airline, founded in 1936, provides scheduled and charter air transport for passengers and cargo to 178 destinations worldwide. This handcrafted model is painstakingly molded from pressure cast composite resin by our skilled craftsmen with a wealth of detail and makes a great gift for any veteran, aviation enthusiast or history buff.
