Information:

The Airbus A319 is a model of a narrow-body, short-range twin-jet airplane. In the most recent variant, it can accommodate up to 160 passengers and 27.00 m³ of cargo. The maiden flight was on 25th of August 1995 and it was introduced in commercial service with Swissair in April 1996. Since then, at least 1,490 aircraft are built and delivered. The designed is based on the earlier and longer A320. In December 2010, the company announced a new generation of the model with better engines and increased efficiency. The old variants are referred as “ceo” (current engine option) and the new specifications were sold under “neo” (new engine option) label. The A319neo is the least popular model from the neo family with only about 90 aircrafts being ordered, as compared to >4,100 A320neo and >2,200 A321neo.

From the A320ceo modification 1,484 units were produced fit with engines from two different manufacturers (CFM International or International Aero Engines). CFM56 type engines were mounted on the A319-111 (CFM56-5B5 or 5B5/P), A319-112 (CFM56-5B6 or 5B6/P or 5B6/2P), A319-113 (CFM56-5A4 or 5A4/F), A319-114 (CFM56-5A5 or 5A5/F) and A319-115 (CFM56-5B7 or 5B7/P), while the variants A319-131 (IAE Model V2522-A5), A319-132 (IAE Model V2524-A5) and A319-133 (IAE Model V2527M-A5) were supplied with IAE engines. There is a corporate jet version designated as A319CJ, which had extended range up to 11,100 km and an increased ceiling of 12,5 km.
