Why Did Airbus Build The A320 Family? HD

The Airbus A320 is the most ubiquitous aircraft flying in the sky and has become the main rival of the Boeing 737. But why did Airbus build it? In the early 80s, there were only a few single-aisle, twin-jet aircraft that suited travel within Europe. The BAC One-Eleven, while highly praised, was ready for replacement. Options on the market were limited to the American made Boeing 737-200 or DC-9.
