Could we please wait at least until end of the month to have at least some statistical significant data? 7 of 32 1st flights this month were NEOs, not good, not bad. 2-3 frames more would completly change the image. Two deliveries, one LEAP one GTF. Much slower is hardly possible. There seem to be some engines arriving, but not enough to clean out the stored birds. 7 first flights in January, 4 GTF and 3 LEAP. The two LEAP SAS birds MSN7489 and 7499 are late, 7489 to be delivered last month 7499 next week according to plan |

Any available engine must have been delivered this month. |

Any available engine must have been delivered this month. That shows how slow engine deliveries are and that for both types of engines. Late deliveries of the SAS birds seem to imply that Airbus was expecting more LEAP engines to be delivered from CFM than arrived. |

Late delivery seems to me like changing plans. If Airbus promised SAS to deliver frames on certain dates and Airbus can not keep this dates and this frames are standing around stored without engines, than I assume that there are problems with the engine supply. Do you have another explanation? |

Do you have another explanation? No, I agree with you, it's just that even when Airbus has early notice of engines delays, changes to the firing order may be unpractical. Airbus may just keep its production plans unchanged because there is nothing better to do. So, we have evidence that there was a lack of engines, not that the shortage was unexpected. |
