    The first member of the A320 aircraft family was the A320, which first flew on 22 February 1987 after the program was launched in March 1984. [5] The family was soon extended to include the stretched A321 (first delivery 1994), the shortened A319 (first delivery 1996), and the further shortened A318 (first delivery 2003).

  9. Thickness-to-chord ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thickness-to-chord_ratio

    The natural outcome of this requirement is a wing design that is thin and wide, which has a low thickness-to-chord ratio. At lower speeds, undesirable parasitic drag is largely a function of the total surface area , which suggests using a wing with minimum chord, leading to the high aspect ratios seen on light aircraft and regional airliners .
