F-GSTA A300 TLS-BGR


Interesting that the type wasn't allocated a separate ICAO code, given that it's slower in cruise and lower in cruising altitude!

I wonder what they consider to be substantive differences?  I thought the idea was that the identifier code quickly apprised ATC of the flight characteristics.
