I have a strong impression that aside from Lufthansa's A340 services, there are relatively few Airbus's used over the North Atlantic. I can't think of any A300 or A310 operations, and the only two engine Airbuses I recall are Canadian A330's. If I'm right, any ideas why? Please don't say they're unsafe.
