What chance that this frame will be delivered this month ? Is the political crisis likely to cause further delays with QR frames ?

I think paying for an new aircraft would be very low down the current Qatar purchase list.
And I can't see this current crisis ends quickly or nicely.

I imagine QR suffers from a drop in demand and would probably like to differ deliveries. With government support, the company may however decide to act as if nothing had happened, and take delivery of upcoming frames.

Up to that while flying around it takes longer - so they need more equipment.

Surely there is a point where a customer, having requested a manufacturer to construct a product for them within a certain timeframe, has no right to delay the purchase without a financial penalty. After all, Airbus have spent a lot of money to date on the frames that fester in Toulouse. One would hope that Airbus have paid their suppliers and are 'taking the revenue stream hit' themselves at present.
