Hello,
AF382V just landed at OPF, presumably for scrapping. Is this a -100 and does anyone know the reg.? I will get pictures for you guys tomorrow.
Thank you

Hello,
I saw on Skyliner that it is F-GFKO, to be flying the PTP routes, however that is not correct at all as it would not be at OPF. Can anyone confirm that at least the reg is accurate and please provide info as to cycles/hours on the bird?
Thank you.

Why did it fly to MIA in the first place, when it could have flown straight from CDG to OPF ? ( I know, with a fuel stop..)

Perhaps it had something to do with Customs and AF's facilities at MIA?

is it not simply the A/C which operates the regular AF carribean route MIA-PAP-PTP-FDF-CAY ?

Pure speculation here, but do we know that F-GFKO was the airplane that went MIA-OPF as AF has had another A320 operating in the Caribbean. That said, F-GFKO is cn 129 and may be up time wise/cycle wise.

Hello everyone,
I went on the aircraft today and MSN 129, after 20+ years in the air, will be scrapped. I will be going back on it tomorrow and will get you all pictures. GOL's PR-GLH is also there and I went on it.

at least these aircraft at Opa Locka had decent service lives as now the word in Aviation Letter is that Frontier is scrapping all of it's "near new" A-318's.....the first two-year old aircraft (as I reported on another post) is at Greenwood being scrapped now and will be followed by others--all virtually new.....

F-GFKO used to be a CDG based 320.
This plane, an A320-200 A1 (MSN 129), had its first commercial flight in nov 90.
