Air Fuji Tricolor A320neos

Air Fuji, Japan's second largest airline, behind Nippon National Airlines (NNA), was founded in 1953 by a former aircraft engineer named Kazuhiro Oda. It was initially called Tokyo Aviation Services, and flew primarily short domestic flights until 1970, when it slowly began international scheduled flights. The partial deregulation of airlines in 1985 allowed its international network to start growing to its fiull potential. Until this time NNA held a monoply on most international routes. Today, it operates nearly 230 aircraft and flies to 103 destinations woldwide.

Now, about the airlines A320 fleet. The aircarft are the backbone of the short/medium haul fleet any have been operating for the airline since 1989, when they came as a replacement to the 737-200/727-200. The A320-200 fleet eventually increased to 62 planes, as well as 30 A321-200s, and 18 A319s. By 2012, however, many of these planes, especially the older A320ceos, were well into their 3rd deacde of service. Right around this time, Airbus announced the launch of the A320neo program, which was a new, improved, and more efficient version fo the A320ceo. Air Fuji was quick to order these aircraft, and eventually in 2013 they ordered a staggering 100 aircraft (65 A320neos and 35 A321neos) for their future short/medium haul needs, and, as a replacement for the older A320ceos. This was the largest ever single aircarft order by a Japanese airlines by number of aircraft, until NNA's even larger order the year after.

The first A320neos were delivered in November 2016, with the first aircraft being registered as JA01FN, and named "Kanagawa". This aircraft and the other 2 aircraft delivered after were painted in 3 different colors. JA01FN being in the normal red livery, represnting the rising sun, JA02FN, representing the sea, and JA03FN, representing forests and vegetation. This was all done as part of the airlines goals towards sustainability to combat climate change.

(this is part of a project of mine where I make a fictional Japanese airline industry in AE, so ill add numerous other Japanese carriers in the future)
