Maybe they are waiting for the other engines to arrive or for them to be painted.
Or maybe Al Baker has been secretly pushing Airbus for a single engined A380, which must have been the reason behind the 2011 Dubai Airshow impasse.

Will it ever be possible to do a twin engine version? Say, 2030?

Very interesting fact about MSN137, the last HoV MSN095-BA1 did spend 3 weeks for FALstage2 before roll out, and the last picture of MSN137 with just one engine on the left side, was taken exactly 3 weeks after the previous picture when it switched from FALstage1 to FALstage2. That last picture of MSN137 with just one engine looks almost complete, what could have happened?... Fabien

Delivery set for March 2014. Makes me wonder how long outfitting in XFW is going to take...
