I wonder why A380s need so many test flights, so many years after the first delivery ... My guess: the pricetag It could also be that a few problems keep cropping up after outfitting ... Flight tests are a very expensive way of testing, and small problems should normally be solved on the ground. Apart from the transfer flight, one CFF and one customer flight should be enough.

Will delivery take place next week? I think EK won't need another frame before starting the route to PER on 01st March, so delivery might occur before the end of the month... Fabien

Delivery of MSN141 confirmed on Skyliner. A few months ago we thought we were halfway through the Emirates order, but still 95 to go.
