My 1st TAP A320, CS-TNC

Paris, Orly view map

I was invited by the magazine to go to the recently opened Paris Eurodisney for the photos for an article with a fabulous Journalist.
And I was lucky enough to be able to try one of TAP's 1st Airbus A320, and airplane I followed the progress so much, from my 3 years work at the French Institute in Lisbon.
How well did it fly? Was there a difference with the Boeing B737? How was the modern all glass cockpit?
I got all the answers, from the two flights.
And was fortunate enough to go to the cockpit and talk extensivly with the Pilots.
Well, the A320 was much softer in turbulence them the 737, but still, not comparable to the Boeing B767 and the L1011 Tristar, my all time favourites, until...
And in all truth, and to be fair, the A310 was also better...
Soon, I'd fly 100's of times in A320s... And in fact I was, and still is much more spacious then the 737 and all the Boeing single aisle airplanes.
