Ok, the quality sucks, but I did get in a little planespotting at the Krispy Kreme this morning.  This is on the approach for runway 22R into O'Hare

Continental 737
...

American MD-80 something...
...

This is from where we were sitting...
...

Clipped the nose on this one.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think United flies 318s.

Its not an a320, its too small, so it'll be an A319 which they do fly. But you are correct they dont fly 318's

I forgot they flew the A319's also, but how could you tell it is small, you have nothing to compare it to...the A320 and A319 look pretty much the same, the A321 is the  easy to determine...you must have supper powers

Like i stated in one of my posts, i cant tell the differances to well. To me it looks rather stubby. Its all about angle and perspective. Too be honest with you i dont care either way, in the end its a nice picture with the possibility for more in the future. It could be the USS Enterprise for what its worth:) Wink

It has to be an A318. This aircraft is too short for a 319.

It is an a319... It just is not short enough to be an A318!

Plus, United does not even fly A318s Roll Eyes
