The British wish to have their new aircraft delivered from France? As the 380's are outfitted in XFW isn't that also the place where possible glitches will have to be rectified? To me it just doesn't make sense that you fly it to TLS unless the frame in questions has undergone all tests and found to be in order. Has it happened before? CFF to Toulouse I mean? Could it have something to do with the Paris air show? MSN121 going there instead of 95?

I think CFF while flying to TLS has never happened before. This is most likely a coincidence but the last frames participating at the Le Bourget show were MSN039 and MSN081, ...both second frames of new operators... (KE2 and MH2). Fabien

In fact spotterxfw was saying CFF, not CAF, meaning that other test flights will still occur before delivery... Fabien

Yeah, I assume CFF could theoretically also be one and the same as CAF, yet very unlikely to happen...

Sorry I confused CAF and CFF... None had CAF directly as a CFF but yes indeed many frames had CFF directly to TLS, including a few QF frames and a few SQ frames,... Fabien

All right So CFF soon, it's hard to believe that MSN121 won't be delivered until August?
