Today, we have some Airplane p0rn extra – and we’d like to welcome one of the pair of British Airways A318′s that will be running the London City Airport – New York JFK which completed it’s first flight recently.

A bit small for those who are used to the larger members of the A320 family, but as this will have 32 seats only in a Club Worldeseque configuration, it should meet the mission requirements nicely.

Lets wish BA some luck with this service – it’ll be good to hear good news about the airline and not the constant stream of bad news….

(For those who are REALLY paying attention – yes the plane has German markings (D-AUAC and a little German flag in the top corner of the tail – once the plane is transferred onto a CAA register, it will become G-EUNA, so they’re like delivery plates on a car)

Welcome to GhettoIFE.com!

I’m your host – Kevin – and I’ll be here to guide you through the maze of modern travel, and hopefully add some insightful comment and humour.

With GhettoIFE getting on for 2 years old, I’ve had a bit of a design refresh, and tidied up, so for older viewers who make it here – yes, it’s the same content will all the usual sarcasm as always.

As well as random posts on the days events, my trip reports and a few other bits, there will be a few “regular” slots including:

• The News – Commercial aviation news in a bite size ripped to bits segments.
• Trip Reports – When I actually go swanning off to explore the world.
• The Soapbox – Where I get to rant and moan about things – Signed Annoyed of Birmingham.
• Airplane p0rn – Yes it’s my photography lovefest of air planes All clean for work. Published every Sunday.
• How to save money … so far on telephone calls and how to get money on flights back via cashback
  
• And analysis on IFE and what’s happening in the world of IFE

GhettoIFE.com is updated once or twice a day depending on what’s going on in the world when I’m at my base, and a lot less frequently when I’m away travelling.

All the posts have a slightly twisted and humours bent, and of course comments are open. Please feel free to drop your thoughts in.

I don’t Twitter, nor do Facebook – so it’s traditional email through the comment boxes or direct at blog@ghettoife.com

Thank you for choosing Kevin’s Ghetto IFE. We know you have a choice in blogs.
