Those cockpit windows are pretty huge compared to the fuselage size. And the centre-posts look too thin.

Exactly my thoughts at first. But there is this picture which shows the sheer size of those windows

Sort of like those simulated screen prints you peel off new gadgets. Is the aircraft shown in the earlier article the actual flying prototype or the static test specimen?

I understand it's a full scale mock-upThe earlier article That would be the first aircraft flying. It'll be some time before that happens, seeing it's just an empty shell

Not a surprise at all though a delay of two years is far more than I had expected.
