The colorful OE-LAL from the Austrian Airlines fleet. Not exactly a classic airliner, although the -200 and -300 series are often cited as A340 "classic" in regard to the later -500 and -600 variants. Michel wanted to highlight an air transport evolution in showing it besides the 1945 Air France SE-161 Languedoc: Only 48 years separate both designs.
