The AB-16:

The AB-16 was an Extra-wide body airliner developed as the airline and travel industry boomed and passenger numbers skyrocketed.
It was fairly large, but efficient and surprisingly robust, being able to operate well in extreme conditions, it was reportedly loved by passengers and crew however it was known as fairly complex.
The AB-16 was a partial success, managing to sell in numbers, but not as much as expected during development, and as time went on airliners started replacing quad-jets such as the AB-16 with more efficient twin-jets, despite this, a number of AB-16s still fly commercially to this day, mainly with the model's largest customer; Nation AirFleet.
