Why this aircraft matters
The Airbus A330-900neo represents Virgin Atlantic’s commitment to modern efficiency and passenger comfort, incorporating next-generation Rolls-Royce Trent 7000 engines, sleek aerodynamics, and premium cabin innovation. The airline took delivery of its first A330-900neo (registration G-VJAZ) in October 2022, and the aircraft entered commercial operations on October 27, 2022, with its inaugural service from London Heathrow to Boston Logan, symbolising a leap forward in both fuel efficiency and flight experience.
Aviation aficionados fondly call the A330 the “Butter Machine”, thanks to its signature rear-tilted bogey landing gear that allows the aft wheels to make contact first—resulting in exceptionally smooth landings. Even as an advanced neo variant, the aircraft retains this engineering hallmark, combining that classic Airbus grace with cutting-edge performance.
This model captures both the elegance of Virgin’s iconic livery and the refined engineering that continues to make the A330-900neo a pilot and collector favourite alike.
