The Airbus A350 XWB Family represents a 21st Century solution for an aircraft in this size category.

The A350 XWB brings together the very latest in aerodynamics, design and advanced technologies.

With an airframe made of more than 60 per cent new materials, chosen for their superior weight and strength properties, the A350 XWB has the most efficient structure in terms of design concept. In particular, its innovative use of all-new Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic (CFRP) panelled fuselage skins cater for much easier maintenance and reparability. This design also allows weight savings via optimum fibre lay-up and skin thickness tailored to the requirements of the location.

The all-new composite wing design lifts the A350 XWB cruise speed to Mach 0.85 (the cruise speed of the A380). Excellent aerodynamics, together with advanced high lift devices and advanced systems contribute to greater fuel economy in all flight regimes and on the ground. Moreover, the new Rolls Royce Trent XWB engine, producing up to 92,000lb of thrust, will draw on the latest manufacturing, materials and thermodynamic expertise to deliver lower fuel burn and lower maintenance costs while minimising the noise 'footprint' around airports and reducing environmental impact.
Building on the A380 interactive cockpit and systems, the XWB Family will feature- modern functions such as an airport navigation system and the brake to vacate, a system designed to optimize braking for passenger comfort and better runway usage.

The A350 XWB is designed to give exemplary reliability in service with longer maintenance intervals and customised maintenance schedules to help provide airlines with higher operating productivity.

The A350 XWB Family represents a 21st Century solution for an aircraft in this size category.

  • airbus still has more orders than boeing and is still rated biggest aircraft manufacture in the world and now boeing has to watch out 4 the chinese cause they are about to totally screw boeings short haul market

  • the eurofighter has the top rating in the world incase you havent noticed and the USAF have 1 of the most outdated, shittiest fighters ever

  • another load of shit

  • @LottoWinner999 What about the 300 some Airbus A320neos that American Airlines ordered a while back? They ordered some Boeings as well, but the ratios between the two is nothing close to 1:1.

  • BOEING IS NUMBER ONE IN SALES AND DELIVERIES

    @averredude101 Hey Junion Asswipe NATO chose F-35 Lightning II - NATO's Joint Strike Fighter over the Eurfagger and you know shit about planes. You can count and did not realize Boeing is number one and Airbus trails in its wake. Last week Boeing had 496 orders for the Boeing 737-MAX & Delta bought 100 B-737-MAXs and that to Boeings balance that over-took Airbus will never become number again. Airbus is doomed to mediocrity just like U and Yo Daddy!

  • @PunctualProletariat Well if you want to supply the rich their Bourgois Toys than go right ahead but when it comes flying in the air I want the GE NegGen engines or GE-C90. RR Trent eninges have to many problems and their complicated and they leak oil. Quantes made Airbus and RR replace evey engine because they were defective and leaked oil. GE engines are simple with easy maintenance and have the repuation for being durable, dependbale and easy easy to maintian and thats what airlines want!

  • @LottoWinner999 watch F22 crash and watch president of americas opinion of the F22. The fucker 22 is nowhere near as good as the Eurofighter. The fucker 22 is a fuel thirsty non stealthy, non manuverable, slow worthless little plane. The USAF are starting to early retire them

  • @PunctualProletariat Watch "Eurofighter Typhoon Crash". Eurofagger is a POS compared to Boeing Joint Strike Fighter which can do vertical take off + is stealthy. An F-18 Super Hornet can take down the Eurofagger. Watch, "eurofighter nearly crashes ''.Eurofagger is underpowered, hard to hard to fly + no stealth. Boeings Nato Strike Fighter is the best with USAF R & D by Boeing & Skunkworks. F-35-L2-NJSF can stand up to any Russian or Chinese jet + NATO pilots get to go to USAF Top Gun Training.
