Given current delivery pace/rates, in which month can we assumed the 100th frame will be delivered, and, for the fun of it...which customer do we think... I will say that it will be in July and Qatar For the god sake...anyone but no Qatar!  |

With the highest MSN number rolled out being 109, I make it that 9 QR frames have been overtaken. Two of these are -1000s but Airbus needs to clear out the other 7 if they are to get A350 production running smoothly. Has there been any credible explanation from QR as to why their frames are so delayed ? Are there delays with customer specific equipment or is it just that QR don't need the frames. Odd that they've taken 2 from LATAM, so presumably the problem is seats or other cabin fittings.

Possibly although if that's the reason I question why they dry leased and not wet leased the LATAM frames. |

The QR frames are making steady progress tho, with MSN 69 having finished two test flights and another 5-6 frames either in cabin fit or in paint. Let's see in about two month if there's a big delivery push for QR. The fact that Airbus really focused on pushing CX and SQ, the other two biggest customers, should make up some of the delayed QR frames.

Did we not discuss and decide that the QR delays recently were down to waiting for the new design Business Class seats that had to await patenting / testing / producing ? a380.boards.net/post/88802/thread |

That's why the production flow started moving recently. |
