THE AIRCRAFT

Meet Airbus A300-600R

The A300 established Airbus in the airline market during the 1970s. Its broad fuselage and two underwing engines offered a new alternative among large transports. Later developments changed the cockpit, wing details and systems, with the A300-600 becoming a major branch.

Early three-crew A300s and later two-pilot versions should not be described as identical aircraft. The family also became important in freight service. The simulator product's full model designation is the starting point for selecting the right flight-deck and systems documentation.

Trim and hydraulics in the A300 cockpit

The iniBuilds A300 guide identifies paired pitch-trim wheels, rudder-trim controls and hydraulic controls, and describes the flight-phase use of the autopilot. The dedicated guide keeps the A300's represented systems separate from the later Airbus sidestick families.
