A340/330
 

Question from a ramp foot soldier. Whatching the 340/330 climb out it does indeed have a moderate angle of attack gaining hieght. Clearly both a/c must meet mimimum power/weight regulations but are they under powered when compared to Boeings. Does the A340-600 have a better climb rate as it appears to take off with the same line as the small engined model. Finally when or is the 330 fitted with the larger engines.
