I don't know, though our friend A380_TLS_A350 did not say 'Roll Out MSN220'. So perhaps MSN 220 was already on the flight line? Or would the engines have been installed between April 14 and April 18?
Frankly I find it hard to believe that MSN 230 would have overtaken both MSN 220 and 221. In my opinion, MSN 220 rolled out together with MSN 230, and MSN 221 afterwards.

We didn't have any picture of MSN220 engineless on the FL so I guess engines could have been installed any time, but perhaps you're right, roll out together with MSN230? Taking 14 April then (edit)(making it 13 weeks to roll out)

We have had some problems with TLS roll-out dates recently. If I believe the 'A380 updates' thread, the latest TLS roll-out was MSN 217 on March 7th. We have no TLS roll-out date in the MSN 218 and MSN 219 threads either, though these frames now are in XFW.

The first post of their respective thread will have the estimated roll out date for MSN218 and 219

Difficult to see if it has engines. Had it had engines, it could indeed be MSN220..... Had it had no engines, this might be MSN221.....
It's MSN221 on the pictures next to Asiana's 230. That unpainted rudder gives it away !
