I've been unfortunate enough to have had her subbed in twice this year (replacing a 330 and a 346 respectively) and believe me, that plane is falling apart inside.
Yeah that's what I was referring to by if you somehow still end up on an A340-200, occasionally in the past 6 months (after they were all supposedly retired) I've seen one parked up in PER for the day before it flies back to JNB
