It all depends which production stage you consider. Suppliers move to a planned higher rate long before the change is seen at entry into FAL, let alone at roll-out. I am not sure that entry into FAL has already reached ten per month, I expected it would happen in Q4.

Right, by June end we had 40 out of the door. Another 70 or so deliveries for the year to bring it up to that rate? We don't know exactly how many A350s Airbus intends to deliver this year. 2019 should be the first full year of production at 10 p. month. |

Well since live is ever-changing process I am not sure even Airbus is sure how many exactly will be delivered. We might name some of those "random" elements to influence the final delivery count -Crunch at some supplier -U-turn Al -for instance now HNA credit problem -anything can happen, problems with .... you name it |

Over 100 for the year is still possible depending on the rate that a few key customers take their frames.

Any last-minute customer issue translates into produced, yet undelivered aircraft. |

I don't know if it's just my perception, the fact that CAAC certification was just acquired/issued, the Air China frames are so close together or Airbus is just spitting them out like hot cakes..these Air China frames seem to be stacking up pretty quickly..

The first two, MSNs 167 and 178, could have been delivered around six months ago. The next three were due around now. Hopefully 5 delivered in the next couple of months. Geoff |

Is any of the A350s from MSN240 to MSN 260 already cabin furnished?
