A320 Airbus is a flight simulation game from 1991 that allows users to operate an Airbus A320 aircraft. Created over a span of three years by Thalion Software, the development involved partnerships with Lufthansa, Deutsche Airbus, and Jeppesen. The original programming for the Amiga platform was completed by Rainer Bopf, with Christian Jungen later adapting the game for the Atari ST. The most recent update is version 1.44.
Two standalone expansion packs were launched in 1993 by Thalion, utilizing an enhanced engine: Europe Edition, which features European airspace, and USA Edition, which emphasizes the West Coast and North East regions of the United States.
The official follow-up, A320 Airbus Vol. 2, was released in 1995 by Games 4 Europe. This sequel was developed exclusively by Rainer Bopf without additional external input.
