What’s right with it?
It’s old, and too compromised. Window belt are too low for anyone over 4 feet tall, too narrow, too loud, horrible take off performance and most of the ones still have those old worn out DTV or nothing at all in them. Then there are the very real safety and build quality concerns with new ones.
It’s an uncompetitive product that is long past the sell by date. Airlines agree as the A320 family now has 65% of the market share and growing while Boeing continues to lose blue chip customers.
