Airbus plans
Airbus Industries has announced it would build two new long-haul airliners, a 400-seat twinengine model and a 260seat four-engine model, in a move seen as a fresh challenge to the U.S. manufacturer, Boeing. The new planes, named the A 330 and the A 340, would enter service at the beginning of the 19905, the fournation consortium said. Development would require an investment of SUS2.S billion ($4.75 billion). The four member companies — Aerospatiale, of France, British Aerospace, Messerschmitt-Boelkow-Blohm, of West Germany, and Casa, of Spain — had made sufficient funds available to finalise the technical details of the planes with potential clients, the company said.—Paris.
