Is there an Airbus 319LR?
Not that I'm aware. but the widebody A330 and/or A340 series should make the jumps. And they are littlemore-littleless enlarged 319s.
Add about 3700 more gallons to the center tank and a few hundred more pounds of internal strengthening and you've got a 319LR, supposed to look the same outside as the standard 319-100 with the CFM high efficiency engines. The narrow body A319 jet will get a bit better fuel mileage, less profile drag for the win.
I'm onit, and Bob's not my uncle.
