iFDG is proud to present the Airbus A319. The aircraft model includes most of the standard features including animated control surfaces, wingviews, flaps, full lighting configuration, and highly detailed, reflective textures.
"The A319 program was launched at the Paris Airshow in June 1993 on the basis of just six orders placed by ILFC late in 1992 and the predicted better prospects of the commercial airliner market, which were certainly realised. The first A319 airline order came from French carrier Air Inter (since merged into Air France), whose order for six was announced in February 1994. Since then Swissair, Air Canada, Lufthansa, Northwest, United, US Airways and British Airways are among the major customers that have ordered more than 500 A319s."

The A319 is a LONG aircraft! BEWARE OF TAILSTRIKE during rotation! DO NOT exceed 10 degrees rotation until you have lifted off!
The A319-100's have a much lower Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW) than the A319-200's! If you want to fly with a full payload, you may have to offload some fuel to stay below MTOW! You may also lower your payload in order to fly with a full fuel load.
The A319 is a much heavier aircraft than the A320. When taking off at MTOW, you may need to use an initial Cruise Level of 29,000 feet. With about 30,000 lbs of fuel remaining, you may cruise higher. Higher Cruise Levels are available if necessary, but it may take a long time to climb to them at full load.
Pay attention to the Maximum Landing Weights! Make sure you are below these weights when you land.
You must assign a keyboard command (Options -> Controls -> Assignments) for Tailhook and Wingfold (cargo doors and drooping control surface operation)! By default, Flight Simulator DOES NOT assign a command for these features.
