Just to nitpick, shouldn't the thread title use a 's' (assembly line s) ? We know there are four FALs in Hamburg ... Just to nitpick, he is talking about the fourth line and there is only one that is the fourth line in XFW. ... And I was talking about the thread title, not answering the previous post. |

Seeing a stored Indigo frame with engines it looks like XFW has some capacity constrains on the flightline. I count 21 spotted frames with engines and no 1st flight. Only 2 of them did at least taxi test or RTO.

Possible. That would make sense if they were only putting engines on gliders..it does make sense to get rid of "old stock" first though

Some Indigo frames have been waiting for new engine parts (re-designed by P&W). Could this frame be one of them, or is that problem affecting only already delivered frames ?. I am not sure ... |
