And msn 9303 is next to it! Is that one going to Tianjin or Mobile? How do you know its going to Tianjin or Mobile? Cause its MSN is far ahead? I don't know. It's a question  Edit: and wanted to add a second question: are all parts for the TSN and BFM FAL's shipped from Hamburg? |

It's a question Edit: and wanted to add a second question: are all parts for the TSN and BFM FAL's shipped from Hamburg? Yes parts for TSN and BFM are shipped from XFW, the set will include the fuselage parts, wings, vertical and horizontal stabilizer. That does not exclude that certain things are shipped direct from the facories to the FALs, like for example engines. A big part of the pre FAL work for all A320 family frames is done in XFW or near there. The middle and aft part of the fuselage are assembled in XFW. The vertical stabilizer and rudder come from Stade and the wings come finished from Bremen. |

TSN have finished wings shipped from China actually now, not entirely sure where the manufacturer (XAIC) is located (maybe in Tianijn as well) but here is a flightglobal article back in 2014 reporting that all the wings for TSN were from China. www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/xian-aircraft-becomes-sole-wing-supplier-for-airbus39s-tianjin-402426/ |

Tianjin doesn't produce A321.
