Model Airplane Factory offers handmade Air Canada 340 display airliner, artistically created by our gifted artists. The Airbus 340 Air Canada airplane model is made to recognized collector scale of 1/100 for enhanced value. After carving the wood, the Air Canada 340 airliner display airplane will undergo stages of fine sanding, between primer coats, to produce a silky smooth finish ready for final painting. The rich color paint scheme and markings of the Air Canada 340 are cautiously painted to the assembled Air Canada 340 wooden display. Multiple coats of clear lacquer is applied in Air Canada A340 display airliner to protect the exquisite artwork and provide an overall glossy finish. The details of the Airbus 340 Air Canada such as the insignia, logos, body number, and squadron are carefully and artistically painted in the Air Canada A340 airliner model airplane for precision.


Compared with the A340-300, the -500 features a 3.3 m fuselage stretch, an enlarged wing area, massive increase in fuel capacity (around 50% over -300), slightly higher cruising speed, larger horizontal stabilizer and smaller vertical tailplane. The A340-500/-600 has taxi cameras to help the pilots during ground maneuvers. The A340-500 is powered by four 53,000 lbf (236 kN) thrust Rolls-Royce Trent 553 turbofans.

The A340-500HGW (High Gross Weight) version with a range of 9,000 NM (16,700 km) and an MTOW of 380 tonnes is due to enter service in 2007 with Thai Airways International. It will use the strengthened structure and enlarged fuel capacity of the A340-600HGW. Kingfisher Airlines plan to use this model to operate nonstop flights from India to the United States.[7] The A340-500HGW is powered by four 56,000 lbf (249 kN) thrust Rolls-Royce Trent 556 turbofans. The largest operator of this type is Emirates, with 10 aircraft in service. The direct Boeing equivalent is the 777-200LR, which entered service in February 2006.
