context_page_description: The Airbus A320 family are narrow-body airliners designed and produced by Airbus.
  The A320 was launched in March 1984, first flew on 22 February 1987, and was introduced in April 1988 by Air France.
  The first member of the family was followed by the longer A321, the shorter A319, and the even shorter A318.
  Final assembly takes place in Toulouse in France; Hamburg in Germany; Tianjin in China since 2009; and in Mobile, Alabama in the United States since April 2016.
  The twinjet has a six-abreast cross-section and is powered by either CFM56 or IAE V2500 turbofans, except the CFM56/PW6000 powered A318.
  The family pioneered the use of digital fly-by-wire and side-stick flight controls in airliners.
  Variants offer maximum take-off weights from 68 to 93.5 t, to cover a 5,740–6,940 km range.
  The 31.4 m long A318 typically accommodates 107 to 132 passengers.
  The 124-156 seats A319 is 33.8 m long.
  The A320 is 37.6 m long and can accommodate 150 to 186 passengers.
  The 44.5 m A321 offers 185 to 230 seats.
  The Airbus Corporate Jets are business jet versions.
  In December 2010, Airbus announced the re-engined A320neo, which entered service with Lufthansa in January 2016.
context_section_description: The A319 is 3.73 m (12 ft 3 in) shorter than the A320. 
  Also known as the A320M-7, it is a shortened, minimum-change version of the A320 with four frames fore of the wing and three frames aft of the wing removed. With a similar fuel capacity as the A320-200 and fewer passengers, the range with 124 passengers in a two-class configuration extends to 6,650 km (3,590 nmi), or 6,850 km (3,700 nmi) with the "Sharklets". Four propulsion options available on the A319 are the 23,040–24,800 lbf (102.5–110.3 kN) IAE V2500, or the 22,000–27,000 lbf (98–120 kN) CFM56. Although identical to those of the A320, these engines are derated because of the A319's lower MTOW.
  The A319 was developed at the request of Steven F. Udvar-Házy, the former president and CEO of ILFC. The A319's launch customer, in fact, was ILFC, which had placed an order for six A319s by 1993. Anticipating further orders by Swissair and Alitalia, Airbus decided to launch the programme on 10 June 1993.  Final assembly of the first A319 began on 23 March 1995 and it was first introduced with Swissair in April 1996. The direct Boeing competitor is the Boeing 737-700.
  A total of 1,460 of the A319ceo model have been delivered with 24 remaining on order as of 30 September 2017.
  A 1998 A319 value was $35 million new, was halved by 2009, and reached scrap levels by 2019.
