The '''Airbus A320 Family''' is a series of narrow-body commercial passenger jets manufactured by [[Airbus|Airbus Industries]]. Designed for short to medium hauls, the aircraft pioneer fly-by-wire technology and regularly compete with the [[Boeing 737|Boeing 737 series]]. The series includes the Airbus A320.


* rudders have wrong initial position after starting flightgear --> This appears to be the Fly-by-wire system attempting to maintain heading into wind. Change the surface wind thru 180deg and the rudder will oppose.
