Airbus A319
The Airbus A319 is the third member of the A320 family and has a slightly shorter fuselage compared to the A320. Just like the A321 this aircraft comes with two engine options: the CFM56 and IAE V2500 engines, which depends on the airline livery that you select. Some liveries also have the Sharklets installed.
In terms of features the A319 is very similar to the A320 or A321 but of course this aircraft is the lightest variant of the family and has a shorter takeoff and landing distance, ideal for smaller airports.
Features
The A319 feature list is available on our website: https://www.aerofly.com/features/aircraft/a319ceo/

Caribbean Airports incl. St. Maarten, St. Barth and Saba Released!
We proudly present our new custom made airports in the Caribbean which are now available with the Global Scenery Streaming feature enabled in Aerofly FS 4.
Today's update brings many new features:
Language support for Portuguese, Brazilian, Spanish, Korean, Japanese and Indonesian.
New liveries for the A321 and B777
Bug fixes related to navigation route LNAV/VNAV
Many popular airports in the Caribbean and around the world as hand made airports
Sint Maarten
The Princess Juliana International Airport (SXM/TNCM) is quite popular in the aviation community, because at the Maho Beach you large airliners are flying over you for landing and you experience the jet-blast when they take off. The airport is now custom modeled in Aerofly FS and also features a hand made beach area with many details.
Saint Barthélemy
The Gustaf III Airport (SBH/TFFJ) is often mentioned in the top 10 most dangerous airports. A hill on the approach and a short airport make this airport particularly challenging because you need to fly a steep approach close to the ground at low speeds to reach the touch down area. This custom airport features hand made terminals, custom terrain mesh and lots of detail.
Saba
The Juancho E. Yrausquin Airport (SAB/TNCS) has the shortest runway on any airport with commercial flights with a length of only 400m/1312ft. We've hand modeled this airport in great detail and added actual 3D rocks on the cliff that leads up to the runway end.
More airports in the Caribbean
We also added many other airports in the Caribbeans: (TFFG Grand Case, TQPF Valley, TNCE Roosevelt, TKPK Basseterre, TKPN Charlestown, TRPG Geralds, TAPA St. Johns and TAPH Bermuda
And even more custom airports in the world
Outside of the Caribbean we've also added more custom airports.
TGU/MHTG Toncontín Airport in Honduras
CRW/KCRW Charleston Yeager Airport in USA
TOD/WMBT Tioman Airport in Malaysia
UAK/BGBW Narsarsuaq Airport in Greenland
MRD/SVMD Alberto Carnevalli Airport in Venezuela
