Airbus announced that its Airbus A321XLR model, equipped with CFM International’s LEAP-1A engines, has received type certification from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).
The Airbus A321XLR is the latest derivative of the Airbus A321neo family. It has a range of up to 4,700 nautical miles, which is 15% longer than the Airbus A321LR model, making it capable of flying non-stop between Tokyo and Sydney. It is equipped with engines from CFM International, the LEAP-1A, and engines from Pratt & Whitney, the PW1100G.
The aircraft completed its maiden flight in June 2022, followed by an extensive test program involving three flight test vehicles. Over 500 units have been ordered, with the first aircraft set to be operated by Iberia Airlines. Models equipped with GTF engines are expected to receive their type certification later this year.
