As Airbus will count MSN 52 and MSN 55 as already delivered we are at 94 A350 delivered. This month and (my guess) in order, Airbus will deliver MSN 119, MSN 76, MSN 115, MSN 123 and MSN 117. With that we will be at 99. Singapore already received the 10000th sticker so MSN 122 will not be the 100th and China Airlines (MSN 121) is not a mayor customer. As marlibu said it will be between MSN83 (QR) or MSN128 (CX). I will bet for QR one, MSN128 has still to be painted and I guess Airbus will have to push too much to have it delivered on July.
Edit: As MSN128 is headed to XFW for painting my bet is for MSN83 to get the 100th A350 sticker. Msn60 is counted by Airbus as delivered too..... Personally I would see CX having the 100th, largest operator for now..... For me the 100th sticker for CX is quite difficult, or it is for MSN119 or for MSN128, either way the 100th sticker should be added in one frame delivered this month. AB is just 6 frames away. MSN119 is already ready for delivery and MSN128 has still to be painted in XFW and comeback to TLS, so for me MSN128 will be delivered in August unless a very hard push from AB regarding painting and customer acceptance (4 weeks for paint and delivery I think is pushing too much) And as I said, the only other major customer is Singapore, but they already received the 10000th. So unless one minor customer gets the 100th, the best positioned is QR.

4 more?? Did I miss 3 deliveries?? MSN115 was delivered today so it makes 94, but Airbus is counting MSN52 and MSN55 as already delivered, which increase the ammount to 96. So we are just 4 away from the 100th

If we actually not follow Airbus' numbers, we will then actually celebrate the 'real' 102nd A350........

If there is a sticker, Airbus will of course apply it to the 100th A350 counted by their maths and not ours.

I think it will be MSN122, Singapore's 16th frame. According to Airbus' 100th.
