Description The European Airbus Industrie is the main competitor for the American Boeing aircraft company. Since the original A300 was released Airbus has developed a number of airliners to compete against Boeing products in the short medium, and long-haul passenger markets. The A330 was developed quite recently and first flew in November 1992. It is similar in size and capability to the Boeing 767 and uses 60,000lb thrust Pratt and Whitney PW4168 high bypass ratio turbofan engines. This 1/44th scale Revell-Germany kit represents the A330-300 which can carry up to 335 passengers with a range of 5,300 miles. Decals are included for an aircraft of LTU, Germany's largest charter operator.
Facts Kit features: Highly detailed 1/144th scale plastic kit for static display 105 parts in white and clear with fine recessed panel lines PW 4168 engine pods with detailed fan fronts and exhaust nozzles Detailed wheel wells and landing gear Clear windshield - NOTE: the passenger cabin windows are punched out of the fuselage leaving a hole for each *********MORE********* window. But, no clear parts are included for these windows! There are therefore three options for dealing with the windows when assembling the kit: 1/ leave them as is - not very realistic; 2/ fill in the windows with putty and use aftermarket window decals; 3/ use a liquid window material such as Micro Krystal Kleer which forms a thin clear film in the window opening. There is a cockpit and cockpit bulkhead but no cabin detail.
