About this type
The original 1988 A320 changed airliners forever: it was the first with digital fly-by-wire and sidesticks instead of a yoke. Everything from the A318 to the A380 inherited its cockpit philosophy.
The famous barking-dog sound on taxi comes from the hydraulic power transfer unit, and the ceo generation barks loudest.
First flight: February 22, 1987.
First airliner with digital fly-by-wire flight controls.
The A320 family became the best-selling airliner family in history.
