The Airbus A350 is among the industry’s most modern twin-engined widebody airliners. Known for its unique composite design, Airbus first proposed the airframe in 2004 as a major competitor of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner program. The A330 originally inspired early concepts of the aircraft, but as time evolved, Airbus developed a new design, marketing the plane as XWB, which stands for extra widebody. The aircraft would also receive its own exclusive engine the Rolls-Royce Trent XWB.
