The first Airbus A310, F-WZLH, flew for the first time from Toulouse on 3 April 1982, painted in Swissair colours on one side and Lufthansa on the other.
- Air International's September 1982 report says the first of three development aircraft made its initial flight at Toulouse on 3 April 1982, wearing Swissair livery to starboard and Lufthansa to port with the registration F-WZLH[6]
- The second A310 (F-WZLI) flew on 13 May 1982 in Airbus house colours; the third, due in August 1982, was the first with GE CF6 engines[6]
- Swissair and Lufthansa were due to take their first aircraft simultaneously in 1983; Lufthansa had specified CF6 engines while the first prototype carried Swissair's JT9Ds[6]
- Wikipedia notes it was the 162nd Airbus off the line and that the A310 already had 181 orders and options from 15 airlines by first flight, a better start than the original A300[2]
- Simple Flying frames the first flight as a signal to Boeing that Airbus was a contender, with a two-crew cockpit and advanced digital avionics[4]
Notable features
- A310-200 as certified in March 1983: GE CF6-80A3 (-203) or Pratt & Whitney JT9D-7R4D1 (-221); basic MTOW 132,000 kg, up to 144,000 kg in later weight variants; limits Mach 0.84 and 360 KIAS[3]
- Fuel capacity 55,100 L usable (outer 7,490, inner 27,950, centre 19,660)[3]
- Fuselage keeps the A300's eight-abreast cross-section but is 6.95 m shorter with a 219 m2 wing, down from 260 m2; typical 195 seats in two classes or 245 all-economy at launch[2]
- Airbus's planning chart for the 132 t GE-powered A310-200 shows 237 passengers at about 2,600 nm (read from graph) with takeoff field roughly 6,500 ft at MTOW; heavier 144 t JT9D variants are listed at 3,500 nm with 237 passengers[2][5]
- Two-person forward-facing glass cockpit as standard, so no flight engineer[2]
