There are at least 4 frames at the DC right now. Doesn´t look that quiet  249, 318, 322 plus ? Would still only make 10 for June, which is just one month’s production. Hope it will be more. Geoff plus 308.
There is still a (small) chance that one the the following frames been join the half-year delivery rush, 266, 270, 282, 315, and even 324.

With production at 10 per month, such numbers can only happen occasionally. Two consecutive months featuring more than 10 deliveries would be a rare event harking back to Airbus' year-end rush periods. |

Airbus is at 49 for this year, that is on average only about 8.2 frames per month. 11 frames missing to make it 10. I expected an end of quarter or half year rush. But with the Hong Kong and HNA frames seemingly stuck in limbo and slow go on Virgin, the push will perhaps come again later this year.

Yes, there are a few holdups which are outside of Airbus’ control. 43 delivered as of the end of May, so still behind the 10/month rate. There were some already assembled QR frames undelivered at the end of 2018 so exceeding the 10/month rate is not impossible.

There are three frames left of the delayed ones, one is getting ready for delivery, one has done its first flight and one has done its first engine run. Come August and they are gone. Qatar frames have been delivered like clockwork since the new agreement. And Qatar is still the current biggest user of A350 frames. There are many other frames delayed in the moment. 5 for Hong Kong, 1 Hainan, 2 Virgin, 1 Latam and 1 Etihad, they make up 10 frames and ist seems more will join the club. |

I agree clearing the stock of previously assembled QR frames has been one of the great successes of 2019. Just three more to go. MSNs 249, 257 and 266. The problems have moved elsewhere ! Geoff |

Airbus is at 49 for this year, that is on average only about 8.2 frames per month. 11 frames missing to make it 10. I doubt Airbus is planning to deliver 120 frames per year. From previous Airbus practice, the rate of ten per month may actually translate into 110 to 115 per year. |

With the Holiday shutdowns of the FAL at TLS and bank holidays it's only an 11 month year, so 110. |

From previous Airbus practice, the rate of ten per month may actually translate into 110 to 115 per year. In the last years the production rate at Airbus has been counted in regards to 12 month. The years, when TLS closed down completely for summer holidays in August, are long gone. So I count the advertised rate 10 a month as around 120 frames a year. But perhaps not yest attainable this year. If all produced and ready frames would have been delivered this year, Airbus would be nearing 60 for the first half. |

In the moment I am thinking, if the Paris Airshow has thrown a spanner into deliveries and July will be a catch up month.
