See the giant Airbus A330 freighter aircraft that will power a new lucrative cargo operation for Amazon
Amazon also has Boeing 767-300 freighters in service with cargo operators like Atlas Air, but the A330-300P2F will be its biggest plane yet.According to Airbus, the A330-300 widebody jet features advanced technology that makes it a "capable" conversion option.The special modification is a way to give the A330 passenger version an extended life, especially with Airbus expecting high demand for mid-sized freighters over the next 20 years.
EFW delivers first A330-300P2F to aircraft lessor CDB Aviation, who leased the jet out to Mexico-based cargo carrier Mas.While the P2F cargo plane appears to be a promising program, Airbus' first go at an A330 freighter was not a huge success.The planemaker launched the A330-200F in 2010 as a replacement for the favorable A300-600F, delivering the first to Etihad Crystal Cargo.
