[HD video below] Airbus will have a major presence at this year's Singapore Airshow, showcasing both its commercial and military transport products. The highlight will be the first public presentation of the new A330-200F Freighter. The aircraft, which is currently undergoing its certification programme, will be on static display throughout the show, taking place 2 - 7 February 2010 at Changi Exhibition Centre.

The new freighter is the latest addition to the A330 Family and will enter service later this year. The A330-200F can carry more than 69 tonnes of cargo on non-stop flights of 3,200 nautical miles. The aircraft features a versatile main-deck cargo loading system, which can accommodate both pallets and containers, enabling operators to serve the freight lift needs of varying markets.

The company's indoor exhibit, located at the stand of its parent company EADS (H23), will feature a life-size mock-up of the upper forward fuselage of the all-new A350 XWB which is scheduled to enter service in 2013. Also on display will be a 1/20-scale cutaway model of the flagship A380, providing a view of a typical interior layout on the world's largest passenger aircraft.

A section of the stand will be dedicated to the latest products from Airbus Military, where visitors will be able to view a cross-section of the new A400M military transporter, as well as a 1/20 scale model of the A330 MRTT Multi Role Tanker Transport.

Reflecting its commitment to the environment, Airbus will also be present at the Green Pavilion set up by the show organiser in association with the International Air Transport Association (IATA). There visitors will be able to get the latest information on the company's initiatives to ensure an eco-efficient future for the industry, including its latest work on alternative fuels and air traffic management.
