With my excuses for not including the MSn on the last post, here's a point of situation of TAP's delivered and in test A339's. On this post I will only mention the planes already equipped with engines, wich are in the final statges of production.
Msn 1819, CS-TUA (ex F-WWKM), delivered & in service,
Msn 1836, CS-TUB (ex F-WWCP), delivered & in service,
Msn 1850, CS-TUC(ex F-WWYO), delivered & in service,
Msn 1892, CS-TUD (ex F-WWYO), delivered & in service,
Msn 1897, CS-TUE, interim reg F-WWYT, FF April 25
Msn 1900, CS-TUF (ex F-WWYT), delivered a& in service, but it went back to TLS on April 09 (Flight TP 9321), in order to correct a 'fume in cabin' problem deteted. It was expected to be redelivered yesterday, but the ferry flight to LIS was cancelled. It will probably be back in service next week.
Msn 1904, CS-TUG (ex F-WWKJ), delivered & in service,
Msn 1906, CS-TUH, interim reg F-WWCQ, 2 flight tests (April 05 & April 17),
Msn 1908, CS-TUI, interim reg F-WWCD, 4 flight tests (March 15 TLS-CHR, April 05 CHR-TLS (painting), then the 'real' flight tests, on 18.04 & 25.04),
Msn 1909, CS-TUJ, interim reg F-WWCL, with engines, but it hasn't yet flown,
Msn 1914, CS-TUL, interim reg F-WWYU, 2 test flights on April 10, the second was a ferry move TLS-CHR for painting.
Seeing all the action, I would say that in the next weeks TAP will get some of these planes delivered, just in time for the opening of new routes (LIS-IAD, LIS-ORD & LIS-SFO) in June.
