Hello again...another post...another airplane....another Airbus..this time its the Airbus A340-300 of Switzerland national carrier, Air Swiss...been to Switzerland before, very nice country but very expensive country to live in...anyways I got this from my sister who was working there few years ago...this model is actually made by Dragon Wings, one of the companies specialising in the manufacture of commercial aviation airplane models...The A340-300 is a shorter version of the A340-600 and if Im not mistaken was designed to compete with the Boeing 777-200ER in the continuing battle between Airbus and Boeing...I was told that the first A340-300 put into service was for Singapore Airlines in 1996, however they put them in service..
The famous Swiss Air livery on the side of the fuselage..the paint job on Swiss Air aircrafts is quite simple, red and white, the official colour of the national flag of Switzerland
The logo is also placed on each of the engines...

The tailfin carrying the Swiss National flag..
This is one thing that I like about airplanes, the wing tip...
Few statistics on the A340-300..
