Narrative:
Earlier this year we took delivery of used A319s with tail numbers XXX; xxy; xxz and xxa. These aircraft are missing from our inflight manual. We have no reference for cabin equipment diagrams and emergency equipment diagrams. As flight attendants; we do not know what equipment we might have in a ditching. We have several configurations of airbus; we reference the tail numbers to look up this information in our manual. There are times we may have read the wrong safety demo; since there is no script under the public address cards. It has been over 6 months since these aircraft joined out fleet; yet we still don't have any documentation in our manual. Please provide cabin equipment diagrams; emergency equipment diagrams; safety demo public addresses; station assignment charts; staffing assignment charts and aircraft identification overview.
