A340s no longer on Airbus catalog

News in brief 10 November 2011Twenty years after its maiden flight, Airbus has completed production for the A340 jetliner, reflecting changing market dynamics. While new aircraft are no longer to be built, Airbus will continue to fully support the current global fleet of A340s – which are providing reliable ultra long-haul flight services with customers around the world – as long as they are in operation. Four versions of the A340 were produced by Airbus: the A340-200, A340-300, A340-500 and A340-600. Providing extended operating ranges of up to 9,000 nautical miles, this product line allows operators to eliminate unproductive stops, open new routes and match service standards to targeted market needs on very long-haul segments.

Completion of production marks new chapter in the A340 success story

An airport cycle with the A380

Take off and landing • Take off & Landing performance better than existing aircraft

• Superior noise performance

• No runway extension or widening required (shoulders extension only)

Ground maneuvering• No taxiway widening

• Better manoeuverability than current aircraft

• Better pavement loading than current aircraft

At the gate• Code F stands are flexible

• All ground equipments exists today

• Turn around time better than existing aircraft



A solution for...

• The A380 is part of the solution

CongestionDesigned to minimize modificationsMore passenger per flight = growth with no extra flightsThe easiest solution for growth at congested airports around the world

EmissionsState of the art engines for lower emissions and better local air quality

The lowest fuel burn of any large aircraft, reducing CO2 emissions significantly

NoiseA friendly neighbour: half the noise than a 747-400 with 40% more passengersEven quieter than smaller aircraft

Continuous adaptation to new aircraft is required

ICAO CAT D ICAO CAT E ICAO CAT F

New aircraft, new challenges for airports


What Challenges for Pavement ?


04/18/23High Tire Pressure Tests - Feb.2011

MTOW Increase

Fuselage length increase

Wing-span increase (& shape) for drag reduction

Fewer wheels for:

Weight saving, noise & drag reduction (approach)

Better maneuverability

but, larger wheels and tires (higher load capabilities

higher braking capabilities)


Need to think about:

• Continuous traffic growth More overload operations ? / Pavement more stressed

• Better aircraft controllability on ground Canalised traffic, reduced lateral wandering width ?

• Climatic changes Material sensitivity to T°

• More precise pavement design & analysis methods

• Combination of PMS with airport traffic simulation tools

• Advanced & innovative material

• Adapted pavement maintenance programme

• Improved pavement construction techniques

• ...
