TURN ON WORD WRAP

Welcome to my Air Canada Wide body series. This is my version of AC's A340-313 in their lastest paint scheme (the only scheme these a/c have worn). Fin 903 (c/n 167) was delivered May 27 1997 and Fin 982 (c/n 88) was delivered June 15 1995. These a/c can be seen flying on Air Canada's transcontinental, trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific routes. Okay why two different a/c you might ask. Well while I was staring at the pics to paint these a/c I noticed that the first two A340's (981 & 982) have slightly different paint schemes compared to 901-910. I won't tell you the difference as I'll let you to find it (I can be cruel sometimes :). Before I get too much further I'd like to thank Camil Valiquette for designing this a/c and for giving permission to repaint his Airbus. I'd also like to thank all the people at Airliners.net where I downloaded the pics to paint this a/c. Plus I'd like to thank Marco Rensen for his excellent Night Light Effects For FS2000 tutorial (night_ef.zip). For further information on AC's A340s please see the enclosed A340-aca.txt for a complete listing and/or Air Canada's website (www.aircanada.ca). Happy landings.
