A340-600 Values Shrug Off Distressed Pressures

Aircraft Asset Assessment: A340-300

A340-300 Values Achieve Measure of Stability

The fall in the price of fuel has played an important part of forestalling any further sharp decline in values of the A340-300. Indeed operators are actually seeking out units.
