Airbus A300-600

Designed as a successor to the A300B4, the A300-600 offers a two-person flight deck and increased range over the B4. The A300 family has been further expanded to include the A300-600R, offering extended range courtesy of a fuel tank in the tailplane and higher maximum takeoff weights. Freighter versions of the A300-600 are an additional option.
