Airbus A300B4 Standard-Range Widebody Airliner Variant
The Airbus A300B4 is the standard-range passenger branch of the original A300 widebody, with increased fuel and range over the B2 and certified B4-103, B4-203, and B4-2C models. The later A300-600/600R and freighter branches remain separate boundaries. Airbus lists 165,000 kg MTOW for A300B4-200 weight variants WV006, WV007 and WV018, while B4-100 variants have lower weight options. The 269-seat figure is the standard single-class passenger planning layout. The listed 44.83 m span comes from the original B2/B4 drawing; these values do not describe the later A300-600 or every cargo conversion.
