Intereseting info Mark Rogers!

Do you have any info on the Boeing narrow bodies vis-a-vis the Airbus?

Is the fire suppression system unique to the Airbus? (The MD-80 series doesn't seem to have anything like that)

For the auto alpha floor protection, why is it not on the A319? Is it that the aircraft still has excess power even while single engine, reducing the likelihood of stall? Also, is the auto stall protection one of the benefits of having a full fly-by-wire system not seen on Boeing aircraft?
