BA A318 Movements! Heads up For Members near RAF Lyneham and Gatwick!

Hey guys just thought i would pass on something i found on another forum!

BA’s First A318 will be doing some Circuit Training at RAF Lyneham Next week!

RAF Lyneham is been used because it can Provide similar approach conditions to LCY!

Looks like the Aircraft will be based out of LGW at first.

It just doesn’t look right

I like it.

I think the larger EMB-190/195 will look better

Although I think you’re right there.

Just go to LHR and take a head on shot of a A319 – Same thing.

Well, what a surprise that was (for me anyway!). Finding out some time ago that British Airways had A318s on order was quite exciting but to today find out that the airline has already taken delivery of the Embraer 170 – a type I never knew that they had even considered – was also a huge surprise. It looks great and I can’t wait to see the 190s when they eventually join the fleet.

Also for BA at LCY, BA Cityflyer took ownership of the first EMB170, G-LCYD, from Embraer in Brazil today (Thursday).

It’s due in the UK on Saturday.

A short little sucker…
It looks like a shorter 319, which looks like a short 320.

I don’t think I’ll be using my holiday time to make a special trip to the UK to watch the thing do circuits…:rolleyes:
