It was March 28, 1988 that the first Airbus A320 was delivered to Air France for testing and training and it entered into service on April 18, 1988. So, really, this is an ongoing birthday celebration from March 28 - April 18, 2008 as there is not really a "born on date" like with humans or Bud Light beer bottles.
Please note that me posting a Happy Birthday message to the A320 does nothing to make me like Airbus any more than I did previously, I am simply reporting the interesting news of the day to our faithful readers. Airbus lovers (unlike myself, did I make that clear) laud the A320 as the one that got Airbus in the commercial aircraft manufacturing game.
