AIRBUS A330

THE A330/350 Type Rating Training

The Airbus A330/350 Type Rating is valid to fly on the Airbus A330 and the A350.

You can choose to train on either the A330 or A350 for your type rating course.

You will just require a Cockpit Transition Course (CTR) on the A350 or A330 depending on which aircraft you took your initial type rating to fly on both aircraft.
