Controller: “FAR1234 confirm your type of aircraft. Are you an Airbus 330 or 340?”
Pilot: “A340 of course!”
Controller: “Then would you mind switching on the two other engines and give me a 1000 feet per minute, please?”

Is it a real situation or just a joke?
haha .. i think a 340 cant achieve a 1000 FPM rate of climb even with extra 2 engines !! a 330 has a better performance !! so the joke wont be true
))
Ne’ways nice one
The joke ain’t true because an A340 could do a’lot more than 1000 fpm, I could do 1000 fpm in a freaking cessna
If it’s a real A340-300, then it doesn’t have 4 engines. It has 5 APU’s. That thing doesn’t climb, it is repelled by the Earth.
