I think at this point he does it on purpose to troll the viewers. Not just the location but also the airport code "NEW" which isn't used by either airport.
That’s because the redesign of the sharklet isn’t exclusive for A350ULR! Every A350 beginning at one point was equipped with the newly designed sharkkets! But it could be that the development of the new sharklets began with A350ULR!
You are correct, the A350-900 uses the large Centre Tank and Airbus have just introduced more fuel in this Tank meet the range. The A350-1000ULR ( project Sunrise ) utilises this extra Centre Tank fuel plus it has a Rear Centre Tank positioned behind the main landing gear bay which is a structural Fuel tank the same as the A340-500 for even more range.
The centre tank isn’t extra, it’s already there! The 900 and 1000 centre fuel tanks are the same size, the difference is a different venting system on the 1000 as more fuel can added!
@@Sterlingjob It was my bad english. The -900 has the basic Vent system, the -900ULR has a modified Vent system and the -1000 has a further modified Vent system.
Singapore Airlines also uses the A350-900ulr on its routes to and from Los Angeles and San Francisco, travelling westbound both of these flights are over seventeen hours. These two routes and New York account for six of their ULR's but I don't know how they use their seventh plane.
I still think due to the highly niche nature of the _Project Sunrise_ flights, Qantas could do these flights right now with an A350XWB-900ULR with only 160-175 seats in Business and Premium Economy class only.
If you could get more detail on the Project Sunrise A350-1000 spec that would be useful - we can imaging the -900ULR changes being adopted, but likely it will require an extra fuel tank and a shortened FWD or AFT hold. Given the 6-wheel landing gear, an increase in the MTOW beyond 316 T should be structurally OK. Say 320 or 325 tonne. Wing Area will likely need a small increase. We are looking at fuel being 45% of TOW for Sydney-London.
Singapore Airlines A350-900 ULR has premium economy class they called, it takes up 1/3 of the whole capacity and the rest is business class.. the forward cargo compartment is not being used, so the forward cargo lining and side walls is not installed, leaving the wall, floor and ceiling opened so you could see all the wires, cables, oxygen tanks and so on...because for extra long haul they don't carry cargo except for passenger bags..so they still use the aft cargo and bulk cargo compartment. the rest of the aircraft still the same like the regular A350-900 that they use..
The ulr forward cargo bay is empty and not used. Also the difference between the 900 and 1000 is the on the 1000 a different venting system is used to allow the tank to be filled up. The 900 doesn’t fit as much fuel in the centre!

G'day Dj, Yes, this is a most helpful video, for me and I guess lots of others. To me, Airbus aircraft look, generally, very similar, apart from their number and letter designations. However, once an AirBus is painted up in most airlines' liveries, it's hard for me to tell which Airbus it might be. I still haven't learned all the differences in Airbus winglets or wing extenders, if they have them, so that's not much help in telling them apart, for me. I've got so used to Boeing's and Lockheed's differences but AirBus variants aren't easy to tell apart with just a short look, or if seen from a distance. (I'd make a terrible plane-spotter these days.). So, yes, a short video course in telling them apart would be appreciated. Cheers, and take care over there in London... BH
I find the Airbuses extremely easy to tell apart. Easier than the 767 / 777 variants (except the 777-300ER). A300 - relatively short and wide. A310, short and wide. A320 - standard Airbus. A321 - rather long and thin. A319 rather short. They typically have sharklets or winglets (all the A320 Family). A330 - twin jet with winglets that look like a tablet was welded on to it. A340 - quad jet with only only one passenger cabin (only one in service really except in Iran) and same winglets. A350 - Zorro Mask, twin jets and very gracefully elegant winglets. Massive engines. A380 - double deck quad jet.
Now Im well confused, I didnt even realise there was a ULR version to begin with. So theres only a ULR version of the -900? And does this have a better range than -1000?
XLR is an A321 Neo model which is a single aisle twin jet for some 240 people max in a dense 3-3 layout. ULR is an A350 900/1000 which is a double aisle twin jet for up to 440 people in a dense 3-4-3 layout.
@@spongebubatzThe A350-1000 doesn’t have the newer sharklets, it still has the older version. Not all new A350s have the newer sharklets, i seen a 2018 Built A350-900 still with the older sharklets
Pues pocas diferencias una de ellas es el tanque auxiliar que aumenta el rango de 15.000 km a 18.000 km los 350-900 normales fabricados desde hace 3 años como el primer 350 de iberia tambien se le puede instalar ese tanque auxiliar
This will be premium service for persons willing to pay the cost of ferrying 50 tons of fuel for the first 8 hr of flight. No way to lowcost it, unless oil is $30 again. Bold move, now Boeing will have even harder time designing their 797.
The A350- ULR is almost the same but more seats on the 1000- Somone said it’s to do with a fuel tank size or to get more seats in Maybe we should ask Airbus this question why 🇬🇧✈️🙏👩✈️👨✈️👍⭐️🇺🇸🥇🙋🏻♀️
Sadly, all airliners are now the same format. Fuselage with one engine on each wing. No MD-11 style tail engine. No T-tails, No 4 engine planes. Everything now looks like a 737 in small, medium, large and extra large.
"The best ever" made doesn't mean much. One could argue that both the original A300 and the A320 were much more disruptive to the industry than any Airbus model since then. The A320 especially propelled Airbus forward as a force to be reckoned with, so in that sense it was probably the best new model Airbus had ever made. By another definition, the A330 family has been a phenomenal and somewhat unexpected commercial success, so maybe that was "the best" as far as ROI and sales are concerned. The A320 Neo was a commercial masterstroke and it was probably "the best" tactical move Airbus ever did. The A380 of course remains the best Airbus from a passenger experience point of view. But unquestionably the A350 is the most accomplished aircraft Airbus has ever released and probably the most thoughtfully designed. For passengers it's also the second-best aircraft to fly on after the A380 and yes, I'm also eager to see how the 777X will compare in that regard. From what we know so far, the 777X will have a wider and more spacious cabin, on the other hand the A350 will still be quieter and have a lower cabin altitude. The competition will be tough, as it should.
@@spongebubatzAgreed, The A350ULR replaced the older A340-500. But the actual longest flight was done on a Record Qantas 20 hours from London to Sydney. A350 was the second longest.
Carry more fuel, then you are burning a lot of fuel just to lift fuel, also means less freight. Also means when they take off fully laden they can't land for a while longer than before.
