  I went to Australia twice once in 1999 and 2001 and both time I took the same plane but I do not know the model...
  
  All I know is that it has a seating configuration of 2-3-2 and it belongs to quantas...It has only two engines...
  Thanks

  Hi there
  
  Hmmm..QFA has 2 acft type in those days..B763ER but recently ,about few years back they also got A330. They are phrasing out their B763..
  Both may be 2-3-2 n running twin aisle..why dun u ask the QGA staff>
  Well, one way to differentiate would be the winglets n tail tapering section of the fuselarge. Boeing has taperin till tail but Airbus are all straight thru. the A330 hasa wider n sleeker more swept back wing profile wz winglets.
  u said 1999 n 2001..so I reckon it was the B763, bekoz QFA first A330 only came into service around December 2002, coded Cradle Mountain QF6008.
  Hope it helps!

  Whether they are tip wings i am not too sure as i was so young than...but what i am sure about is that on my recent trip last year to Australia I was on one of their domestic flights and it was exactly the same plane...It is that kind of sense of familiarity...

  The interior is rather sparse with only one big screen in the front and on the arm rest there is a led display with just 2 digits informing you of the radio station you are tuned to...
