Airbus Industrie flew a Pratt &Whitney-powered A330-200 for the first time on 4 December from Toulouse. The aircraft is fitted with the PW4168, one of three engine types to be offered on the A330-200. A General Electric CF-6-80E1-powered aircraft has been flown, while a Rolls-Royce Trent-powered version will be flown in July 1998. The A330-200 is a shorter, long range version of the A330-300.
