Very interesting quote: Yet another proof that some gains can be unexpected surprises. It sounds like this capability was hidden from the engineers until they started working on the Sharklets!

Could this increased MTOW A319 option also be of interest for airline versions ? Could it help to revive A319neo sales ?

It does a quite a few stuff better than any other in the family, bigger range, hot/high performance etc. But the problem is that its tiny-ness in terms of space loses too much in revenue for too little trip cost difference between it and the the larger sibling.

Of course, I was just trying to second-guess Airbus' A319neo plans. Is this sub-type going to be only a 'hot-and-high' airliner + a corporate jet ?

Didn't we have any thread like this before?..
I just realised Air France hasn't ordered any of the A320neo Family types (~yet~), any special reason for this?.....
Wondering farther, is there any other big operator of the ceo-types that haven't ordered the neo yet?.......
