Do you think it's still on track for a delivery in Q1 2014?

As we know MSN137 will not need repairs, if MSN137 was needing repairs I think it would have entered the hangar without the wing tips, as MSN121 did... I think it might go to finish some little work, it has been observed in the past, some frames already rolled out went for some little time in some flight line hangars... Fabien

Delivery might also slip due to the late opening of the new Doha airport?

I agree with the comments above, certainly wouldn't be nice boarding an A380 with only airstairs! On that note, can the current airport handle the A380?
