About the A320 Northwest

The A320 is a short-to-medium range commercial passenger aircraft manufactured by Airbus. First delivered in 1988, it pioneered the use of digital fly-by-wire flight control systems in a commercial aircraft. With more than 3,000 planes of the A320 family built, it is the second best selling jet airliner family of all time, after its primary competition, the Boeing 737. Northwest Airlines owns 73 A320s, and the fleet is used for domestic short-medium haul routes along the United States, Canada and Mexico.

The first member of the A320 family, the A320, was launched in March 1984, first flew on 22 February 1987, and was first delivered in 1988. The family was soon extended to include the A321 (first delivered 1994), the A319 (1996), and the A318 (2003). The A320 family pioneered the use of digital fly-by- wire flight control systems in commercial aircraft. Although there has been a continuous improvement process since introduction, currently the A320 Enhanced program includes greater improvements. The Airbus A320 family has over 4,200 aircraft built and an additional 2,300 aircraft on order as of March 2010. According to Airbus, it ranked as the world's fastest-selling jet airliner family according to records from 2005 to 2007, and as the best-selling single generation aircraft program.
