A-320 Question

Recently on a trip to Chile, we rode an A- 320 within Chile. We were in coach and sat behind the wing, as FC or BC was not offered. While rolling down the runway, the aircraft fishtailed from side to side; it was fairly rough. This was my first time in coach on this aircraft, and I have never experienced this to this degree on a Boeing plane. Is this indicative of all Airbus aircraft or was it probably just this plane? We experienced this on both segments on this aircraft.

Has nothing to do with Airbus or Boeing...I suspect it was either very windy, uneven runway, or the pilots were boozing it up!

Interesting question, but one that will undoubtedly get better replies in the TravelBuzz forum. Accordingly I am relocating this thread there.

Hope you enjoyed your trip to Chile, despite the turbulent flight.

Thanks
