China Eastern receives first A350 with cockpit touchscreens By David Kaminski-Morrow19 December 2019 www.flightglobal.com/systems-and-interiors/china-eastern-receives-first-a350-with-cockpit-touchscreens/135851.article China Eastern Airlines has taken delivery of the first Airbus A350 to be fitted with a touchscreen option for the large displays in the aircraft’s cockpit. The initial aircraft to receive the option is an A350-900, MSN373, which is registered B-30CW.FlightGlobal had reported last year that Airbus was testing touchscreen displays on an A350-1000, and certification by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency took place in November...“This allows the pilot to be more efficient, avoiding having to move a cursor between four displays all the time,” he states. Allowing both pilots to interact with the electronic flightbag reduces workload, he adds, simplifies cockpit management during demanding stages of the flight, including take-off performance calculation, en route chart access, and preparation for approach. |

From the tail paint, does anyone agree that the frame on the left could be a China Eastern frame? Blue half circle at the middle, and a little red pointy one third from the top. Don't know MSN, looks like fcs. So could be 470, or any new frame build for TSN delivery (505 or 511).  Msn517 F-WZFI 29/4/2021 by A380_TLS_A350, on Flickr |

According to half year report to stock market, China Eastern is still plan to take 3 more A359 in 2021 (incl. 452).
But the plan for the remaining 8 frames has changed, instead of taking all 8 in 2022, now MU will take 5 in 2022 and remaining 3 in 2023.
PS. no change for CA, and CZ did not release any delivery plan.
