China Southern Airlines D-AZAR MSN 8415 first flight First Leap-Powered A321neo for a Chinese Airlines. Do we know if Leap A321neo has obtained the CAAC type certification yet? I guess the answer is "yes". Delivery planned today: Airbus A321 -271N 8415 B-303G China Southern delivery 15dec18 XFW-TSE ex B-303G www.skyliner-aviation.de/regdb.main?LC=nav4&page=2

Nice picture addasih, also gives a nice comparison to an earlier picture by Matthias Duber. I have put them side by side. On the left the -253N mentioned upthread (B-303G) and on the right the most recent picture, a -271N (B-303W).

When one looks at small detail by small detail, there is a difference. But I would still not be able to decide what is what when I would not see them side by side,
