Commercial realism overtakes A340 (Flightglobal)
Airbus's decision to end the A340 programme follows years of dwindling sales of the four-engined type, which achieved overall orders of 377.
[...]
Airbus said the A340 became a "build to order" programme in January 2010 and sales in the market have since been exclusively for the A330 and A350.
"Recognising these market preferences, Airbus has decided to no longer offer the A340," it added.
