04-25-2008: second UPDATE:
Marc-A Veillard (many thanks!) has just sent two photos of two different A320-100s that were not on the databse: MSN 8 - G-BUSC; the first British Airways A320-100 on Pictaero; and MSN 14 - F-GFKD, an other Air France A320-100!
Pictures can be viewed below, in the list!
04-25-2008: UPDATE:
Jean-Marc D. has just sent us a photo of MSN 2 - F-GFKQ which I have added to the list below!
Other members sent us their pictures of Air France A320-100s! The database is filling up! Only a few are missing! Well done to you all!!
04-20-2008: UPDATE:
Claude de St Etienne sent us A320-100 photos that have just been accepted. Among them, the 7000th photo on Pictaero. Have a look at it below; it is F-GGEB - MSN 12.
Besides, MSN 3 - F-GGEG was sold to the United States on April 16th; it is no longer active with Air France.
04-17-2008: UPDATE:
many thanks to Guillaume for sending two photos of MSN 5 - F-GFKA .
I shall add a link to them below.
Last week, as I was at Toulouse airport, I saw an Air France A320 afar, without her tail, engines and completely hidden ... it was in fact F-GGEF (MSN 4).
So, I then looked up on Pictaero.com to check if there were "traces" of that aircraft, which will unfortunately never see the sky any longer. There was one: I would like to thank Claude de St Etienne for that shot.
Then, I thought that those first A320s, known as A320-100, would have their lives ended soon. I was glad to see that there was quite a number of them on Pictaero ... here is a list of all twenty-one of them, with a picture whenever the plane is on Pictaero's database!
Of course, "Bravo Alpha" is and will be Airbus's prototype for all testing, with new IAE engines at the moment for instance.
Air France (and Air inter formerly) has operated 15 planes:
Eventually, British Airways has operated five A320-100. Unfortunately, only one of them currently is on Pictaero.
The list is over. Now, that is where you play your part! Your pictures will fill the gaps in the list. Those planes don't have much time left before they are stored and stop flying. It would really be a pity to miss them! That's why I count on you to send your photos, be it old or recent, and we will update the list in some time from now.
