First flown in 2014, the A320NEO started out as the A320 Enhanced (A320E) program with a series of improvements targeting a 4–5% efficiency gain with large winglets (2%), aerodynamic refinements (1%), weight savings and a new aircraft cabin.  Nearly 28 years after the first A320, on 25 January 2016, the A320neo entered service with Lufthansa, the type’s launch customer.  This is one of 19 in the Lufthansa fleet with 96 on order, all will replace older Airbus A319-100 and Airbus A320-200 aircraft.  Fuji X-E2s w/18-135mm.
