When will MSN118 be expected to be FAL-loaded?..... If it is really due for delivery in April 2018 ? Then it won't load till Nov/Dec 2017 ! |

FAL entry around June I understood. Clearly way out of sequence.

I would expect all A35Ks to need more assembly time than A359s for the moment. Airbus' organisation in multiple stations allows flexibility enough for both types to be built at the same type at different paces of production.

That doesn't explain why MSN 118 is so much behind. MSN 125, another A350-1000 for QR, is currently entering final assembly. It doesn't matter though, the plane is coming.

Station 59 entry is now scheduled for August, after MSN 177.

Last of CX -900's on the productionline. Quite clever it seems: only after all 22 (20+2) are in service they will switch their focus to the -1000.
