= General Information =

The A340-600HGW (High Gross Weight) is a develped version of the Airbus A340-600. The first Airbus 340-600 first flew on 18 November 2005[69] and was certified on 14 April 2006.[70] It has an MTOW of 380 tonnes (837,756.6 lb) and a range of up to 14,630 kilometres (7,899.6 nmi), made possible by strengthened structure, increased fuel capacity, more powerful engines and new manufacturing techniques like laser beam welding. The A340-600HGW is powered by four 60,000 lbf (266.9 kN) thrust Rolls-Royce Trent 560 turbofans.

Emirates became the launch customer for the A340−600HGW when it ordered 18 at the 2003 Paris Air Show; but postponed their order indefinitely and later cancelled. Rival Qatar Airways, which placed its order at the same airshow, took delivery of only four aircraft with the first aircraft on 11 September 2006. It has since let its purchase options expire.
