The Airbus A320, a revolutionary narrow-body airliner that pioneered electronic fly-by-wire flight controls in commercial aviation, first flew in 1987. This twin-engine, low-wing monoplane typically seats 150-180 passengers and established new standards for fuel efficiency and operational flexibility. With a range of 3,400 nautical miles and spanning four decades of continuous production, the A320 became the world's best-selling commercial aircraft family. The aircraft was manufactured by Airbus, the European aerospace consortium.
