It depends what you are use to, go with an open mind and I'm sure you will enjoy it. It will take a good year to start to feel comfortable, I have been on the Airbus now for 5 years and how I operate it is second nature to me and feels natural and I know what the aircraft is doing.
Everyone has their own opinion. Both companies make very fine aircraft.
Stone, the 320 series does NOT trim for speed. Read your manual. Fact, not opinion.
Babotika has it correct, BTW, I actually like the bus, but I don't completely trust her.
