Hi Luca,

The A300-600R has a ETOPS180 rating. About the other models; I know most of them are certified, but I'm not sure of they are 120 or 180 rated.

I'm arguing that their employment it's similar to A332

You're pretty close Luca. The A332 was designed to replace the A300-600R. And to a limited extant the other A300 models.

As long as the aircraft can make the flight and land with legal reserves, have at it.

The A300 was meant for transatlantic flights and the smaller A310 has an even longer range than the 300. Also if you want something more modern the A330 is meant to be a 767 competitor.
