Well, that's interesting. Old documents indicated that A340 wings would be modified for FSTA by installing pods, rather than engines, on the outboard pylon points.

However, perhaps now that A340-200/300 production is all but complete, that 'simple' concept is no longer in the frame - and A330 wings are now required?

But, as I say, it is a long time since I was given that information.
