BWoS will indeed build the wings. Luckily the A330 shares the same wing as the A340, the only difference being the redundant outboard engine mountings points will be used for the pods, thus removing any additional structural "Modification" in its construction. Any mods required from a refuelling point of view should all be taken care of by Cobham. BEagle will correct me if wrong

Congratulations to AirTanker. Lets hope that the deliverables are achieved on time and budget, and give the whole of the defence industry something to aspire too!

Ah.... BEags got there before me!
