Summary: Wonderful coverage of the last Toulouse buses
Comment: The "Perfect Team" strikes back!
This book is another good example on how Mr. Norris and Wagner treat modern complex jetliners in the right way, in order to explain to the many and to the experts all hidden peculiarities of these fascinating planes. The authoritative text of Mr. Norris is wonderfully mated with the stunning photographs of Mr. Wagner, and the two constitute a really perfect team for aviation books!
This title examines in deep all troubled development phase of the A330/A340, with emphasis on the Toulouse's innovative approach to develop the same plane with totally different powerplants, both in type and number. Also the technical analysis is well done, with many hints on aerodynamics progress introduced by these liners.
The book obviously covers the "test" and "in service" chapters and closes with a description of the new A340-500 and -600.
The only regret on this book is the fact that you wish it bigger, both to include more text and more and wider images.
Thanks a lot, Perfect Team, we wait for the next one!

Summary: Wonderful coverage of the last Toulouse buses
Comment: Norris and Wagner constitutes a perfect team to illustrate the intricacies of modern airliners: the very detailed and well researched text by Mr. Norris is wonderfully completed by the stunning images shot by the different and deep eye of Mr. Wagner. This book is no exception to the rule of the "perfect team", so covers very well the phases of these important projects, the first challenge (or better: "defi")and direct attack to the "Seattle territory" of the big wide body jetliners.
Both A330 and A340 (especially the first) performed well on the difficult airline market of nowaday, by the fact that feature a common structure (both wings and fuselage) and cockpit, very important plusses for many airlines. By the way of this, airlines can easily switch the crews between long and medium range route, maximising aircraft utilisation.
All these aspects and many other are well treated in this volume, also the test phase is amply covered and the only pity of this volume is that you want it bigger (both in pages and in format) in order to fully appreciate all these technical aspects and wonderful images.
Thanks a lot, Perfect Team!
