The BabyBus Jamboree

Hello, IFC!

The A318 is becoming increasingly rare, and with TAROM recently shutting down it’s operations of the aircraft, Air France remains the single airline operator of the little plane.

Here are a few photos from the past few years to celebrate this beautiful baby bus :)

Thanks a lot for looking at this topic!

Should I make more airline/aircraft-dedicated topics?

It will be a sad day the day that Air France retires its A318s…

Great shots as always from you!

I’m happy to say that I did see one of TAROM’s A318s before they were retired, but that’s unfortunately also the only one I’ve seen. I do hope to spot at least one of Air France’s ones before they’re taken out of service for good…

“Little Stubby”! “The Short Bus”!!
Frontier had a bunch of them & United a few. They were a great deal of fun to watch take off. Being way overpowered, with a quick flick of the joystick back with a lift, they were gone! America West in the background as a bonus!
Going to miss this little devil!
