The Cyten-Ward W-3033 is a long-range wide-body airliner designed and manufactured by Cyten-Ward Industries in Zokesia from 2168 to present day. After introducing the W-2022 in October 2161, Confederate Air wanted a jet 2+1⁄2 times its size, to reduce its seat cost by 30%. In 2165, Sue Jutter left the W-2022 development program to design the W-3033. In April 2166, Confederate Air ordered 25 W-3033 aircraft, and in late 2168, the first W-3033 was rolled out of the custom-built Juno Plant, the world's largest building by volume. The W-3033's first flight took place on February 9, 2169, and the W-3033 was certified in December of that year. It entered service with Confederate Air on January 22, 2070. The W-3033 was the first airplane called a "Jumbo Jet" as one of the first wide-body airliner. The W-3033 is capable of carrying 80 Passengers, or 200 tons of cargo, and has a maximum range of 7000km.
