Airbus A320-232, registered VH-JQW, flies for Jetstar Airways as part of the Qantas-owned low-cost carrier's substantial A320 fleet supporting domestic Australian and short-haul international routes. Jetstar was established as Qantas's response to the competitive threat posed by Virgin Blue, forming one half of the Qantas Group's dual-brand strategy alongside full-service Qantas Airways. As part of this fleet, VH-JQW supports Jetstar's role providing low-cost domestic and regional connectivity across Australia and to nearby international destinations.
Please note: An optional display stand is available separately if you wish to display this model "in-flight".
Designed as a short/medium range narrow-body airliner to compete with the Boeing 737, the Airbus A320 was first flown on February 22nd, 1987. The A320 features side stick controllers and glass cockpit and was the world's first airliner to use use a digital fly-by-wire control system. Controversially, the software includes "flight envelope protection" to prevent the pilot from exceeding safe flight parameters. The highly successful design rapidly led to the development of the shortened-fuselage A318 and A319, and lengthened-fuselage A321 derivatives. More than 4,500 of the A320 family have been produced, almost all of which are still in active service. © Copyright 2003-2026 The Flying Mule, Inc.
