Operational Context
Airbus A330-200F — twin-engine widebody freighter
The A330-200F first flew in 2009 and entered service in 2010. It features structural reinforcement and a main-deck cargo door for freight operations. The aircraft retains the wing and cockpit commonality of passenger A330 variants.
Powered by two Pratt & Whitney PW4000 or Rolls-Royce Trent 700 turbofan engines producing approximately 70,000 pounds of thrust (311 kN) each depending on engine choice, the A330-200F cruises at around 470 knots (870 km/h). Maximum takeoff weight exceeds 510,000 pounds (231,333 kg). Payload capacity approaches 150,000 pounds (68,039 kg).
The A330-200F serves cargo operators worldwide. It offers improved fuel efficiency compared with older freighters. Production volumes were moderate within the competitive freight market.
