The A-320 was designed by the European Airbus Industries at the end of the
1980-es and became the first civil aircraft equipped with the digital fly-by-wire
flight control systems. Such aircraft are operated not manually but with the
side-sticks located on the side console of the pilot. There are no pointer-type
indicators on a flight deck: all the information is shown on color displays.
A320 is relatively small but provides more space for passengers and carry-on
baggage than many similar aircraft. The A-320 family is by far the most
successful plane of the European Airbus Industries with over 5.232 units
built up to 2012.
