| Kingfisher Orders Five Airbus A340s |
Airbus has won an order from India's Kingfisher Airlines for five Airbus A340-500 ultra long haul aircraft and an option for five more, the European plane maker said on Monday.
British engine maker Rolls-Royce said it would supply 20 engines to Kingfisher in a deal worth USD$500 million at list prices including maintenance contracts.
The aircraft are set for delivery in 2008, Airbus said in a statement.
Kingfisher was started by tycoon Vijay Mallya whose UB Group makes Kingfisher beer, India's top-selling brand, and a host of lifestyle goods.
