Airbus A350
The A350, which Airbus also calls the A350 XWB, is its newest wide-body twin, offered only with Rolls-Royce Trent XWB engines. The A350-900 entered service in January 2015 and the longer A350-1000 in February 2018. Both have a 212 ft 5 in wingspan and a fuselage 19 ft 7 in wide, and Airbus quotes a cruise speed of Mach 0.85 for both. An ultra-long-range version of the A350-900 carries extra fuel for flights of up to 9,700 nautical miles, and Airbus also offers a freighter, the A350F, built on the A350-1000.
