[edit] Last airline delivery to Iberia?

The second section says the last copy was delivered to Iberia in 2010. The Airbus page <:ref>http://www.airbus.com/en/aircraftfamilies/a330a340/a340-500</ref> states that there are still 6 outstanding orders for the -500 version, while all of the -600 orders have been filled. Somewhere else in the article it states that the production line will close in 2016 when all are delivered. Won't they keep the line open because of the A330 anyway?

[edit] A340 Unit Cost, international currencies?

In the 'Unit Cost' section of the A340 all the non-USD values are wrong. For example the A340-600 is listed as being US$275.4 million, this is correct but the values for £ and € are wrong. At today's prices US$275.4 is worth £170 million and €192.4 million. The converted values are wrong by about £100 million! Should this be changed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.157.224.18 (talk) 14:09, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

[edit] Picture Caption

With the introduction of the A380, the A340 is the third (not the second) largest airliner (after the A380 and 747). Recommend revision of the caption of the picture just below the information bar. 70.249.187.250 (talk) 04:38, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

The caption says second longest, which is still true, as the A340-600 is longer than the A380, not largest. No change required.Nigel Ish (talk) 12:44, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
