Interesting theme running on Flightglobal -
This backdrop image (below), captured by chance during an Airbus event at the Paris Air Show, has sparked curiosity after it appeared to show the Saudi Arabian Airlines logo accompanying an unidentified four-engined aircraft. It briefly turned up during the event marking Qatar Airways' order for Airbus A320-family aircraft, as a projector cycled through several backdrop images of carriers which were planning announcements at the show. These carriers included Turkish Airlines, Cebu Pacific, Vietnam Airlines and AirAsia, all of which subsequently disclosed Airbus agreements. Saudi Arabian Airlines did not make any announcement at Paris, and the Middle Eastern carrier has already detailed a 70-aircraft fleet-renewal plan covering twin-engined Airbus A330s, A320s and Boeing 787s, so the significance - or otherwise - of the backdrop is uncertain.
But the image, taken from Flightglobal's coverage of the Qatar event, appears to show a four-engined jet between two other aircraft, alongside the Saudi Arabian Airlines corporate logo. Airbus manufactures two four-engined aircraft, the A380 and the A340, although it is realistically obtaining new orders only for the former.
