Airbus A320-200
Entering service in 1988, the A320 was the first airliner with digital fly-by-wire controls and a sidestick — fighter-jet technology that reshaped how airliners are flown. It established Airbus as a genuine rival to Boeing in the crucial single-aisle market, with a wider cabin and modern systems that won over airlines and crews. Its family went on to become one of the best-selling aircraft in history.
