Do we know how MSN003 is doing? 5 weeks since the rollout from S50, could S40 be finished as well and is she in S30 now?

So, what do we think? Is she in the paint shop already and can we expect a glimpse next week? I sure hope so! Considering that top Airbus executives are needed for the Mobile FAL groundbreaking on the 8th, If Airbus does an official rollout with the A350 in full colours it will either be in the next few days or at the earliest halfway through next week. Does anyone here know how long it takes to paint an A350 sized aircraft? Thats what I thought, people like F. Bregier will most likely be in the States next week, I'm just really anxious to see her in full glory I believe Airbus paints an A380 in about 1,5 to 2 weeks and taking into account that the Airbus house colors are white for the majority of the aircraft painting could be finished within a week or so. We will see IF she was transfered to the paint shop right after engine attachment last Wednesday I guess it should be possible?

According to what Airbus published.... Yes!
That order might be for series/customer production only, because the same goes for the cockpit furnishing (seats etc...). That should be done at station 20 too, but there are pictures dating back a couple of weeks which show the seats installed.

Hahaha, "Not That Much" doesn't mean I don't like it eh.. Have you flown on it? No I haven't But it's just not as appealing to me like the A350 or the A320neo with that engine size and shark lets

So, I'm discovering the new forum.. Rick Earth ---> Europe ---> Netherlands ---> Hillegom 24 years old (or young ;P ) Finished my integrated ATPL course in 2009, since then I've been looking for my first job as a pilot In the mean time I have worked at KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, first years as a Team Member Turnaround Crew and the last year as a Brake Operator with the Aircraft Towing Department (get to sit in the cockpit, Yay ) and during the winter I did some De-Icing.

Thanks!!, read XWBs PM on a.net immediately but took me a while to register again... Most because I'm not that much of a fan of the 380, just Airbus, the A350 and the A320(neo) family. But happy to be back at last and looking forward to start contributing again
