The A320 family is a short to medium range twin engine transport aircraft. The fuselage is a double bubble construction giving a single aisle and seating up to 185 passengers in two rows of three seats. The flight deck is designed for two pilot operation and two observer seats are installed. The A320 was developed and is assembled by AEROSPATIALE, Airbus Industries, Toulouse France. The A320 program was launched in 1984. Maiden flight was completed February 1987 and the first Aircraft entered service in April 1988. The A320 Family is certified for two different engine types: A319/320/A321 powered with CFM 56-5A A319/320/A321 powered with IAE V2500 The A320 family is available in a stretched version named A321 and a shorter version named A319.
DESIGN CRITERIA
The design criteria for the primary structure is 48000 flights. The aircraft is approved for 24000 flights and the threshold for initial structure inspection is 20000 flights based on average flight time of 1.25 hour. Landing gear design criteria is 60000 cycles. The Cabin Pressure system operates on Max Differential Pressure of 8.06 PSI. Max relief valve pressure is 8.40 PSI Max usable fuel in the two tank version is 15609 LTR (12487 KGS). In the three tank version 23859 LTR (19087 KGS) based on a fuel density of 0.800 and with additional space for 2% thermal expansion.

HIGHLIGHTS
The A320 belongs to the New Generation aircraft where most of the latest technology has been utilized. FADEC Each of the Engines are controlled by a Full Authority Digital Engine Control providing power management, indications and engine limitation among other duties. Pilot control is achieved by means of electrical power levers on the pedestal. ECAM Aircraft system monitoring is now achieved by a Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring system where system page is automatically displayed in case of failure. EFIS The cockpit is equipped with Electronic Flight Instrument System, consisting of six CRT indicators. CFDS A Centralized Fault Display System uses the Multifunction Control and Display Units (MCDU) as access keyboard to perform check and trouble shooting of various computers in most of the systems in the aircraft. Sidestick The conventional control column is replaced by two sidesticks for control of the aircraft. MCDU Two Multifunction and Display Units are used as interface for the Flight Management System and for access to the CFDS.
Composite Materials of different kind are used in a great extend, specially for flight control surfaces. Fly By Wire The conventional cables for the flight control surfaces are replaced by wires, only the Stabilizer and the Rudder are backed--up by cable runs.

COCKPIT LAYOUT
The Cockpit is designed for a TWO PILOT operation. A third occupant foldable and slidable seat is located on the rear right panel. It is a CLASS COCKPIT that means there are 6 CRTs installed which give information about the aircraft systems and the flight situations. The windows can be opened and they function as a emergency exit.
