The Airbus A320 Family
Airbus X builds on the popularity and success of the Airbus A320 family. Commercial passenger jet airliners in the Airbus A320 family include the A318, A319, A320 and A321, and the ACJ business jet.
The A320 was the first member of the family, flying for the first time in 1987. The A320 family was soon extended to include the A321, the A319, and the A318, first delivered in 1994, 1996 and 2003, respectively. In 2010, Airbus launched A320neo "New Engine Option", a new generation of the A320 family. To date, about 5,200 Airbus A320 family aircraft are in service. The A320 family was the first group of commercial aircrafts to use digital fly-by-wire flight control systems and side-stick controls.

I am VERY impressed Thank you for this high quality item.
Once again terrific adverts.....items to die for...For instance I would like to buy the Airbus X Extended Edition.
But how do I do it ???
NOTHING IN THE AD FOR ORDERING, OR ON WEBSITE, AND GOING OVER TO SIMSHACK TO FIND IT IS NEAR IMPOSSIBLE. I find this simple correction needs your urgent attention.
I ask you....the preparation of a much detailed programme and the effort that must have gone into it is frustrated because I cant find the bloody thing to BUY it.......Fer krist sake FIX IT !
