T’is true, 3.6 years young, A.318 retired and parted out, was it really worth more as parts? 😮

We should get some for 32 Squadron – they’d look nice with a red fin…..
Any photoshoppers out there? 😀

Three Frontier A318s have already been parted out – two at Greenwood, MS and one following CFM engine recovery by GECAS. Three more are to follow – again two at Greenwood and one for its CFMs by GECAS. It is the newer a/c in the fleet that are being parted out – the first [six?] remain with Frontier as of now. Frontier is rolling over its smaller Airbus fleet into new-build A320s, and the A318s being a bit odd-ball are worth more as parts than they are on the second hand market.
