Eh what?? We already have customer aircraft moving under their own power?  Looks like I've not been keeping abreast of the neo development close enough!  |

If we will have delivery this year ..... Is QR still the first in line to receive the neo? If so, are there any frames complete with engines, even perhaps moving under own power? |

Given as nicolele mentioned the aircraft is in the tan coloured primer which suggests the aircraft won't be painted in a while, I'm guessing it will probably be used to help the flight test campaign explaining why it will be delivered after QR's first aircraft despite being built before it. |

Don't bet on a QR frame being the first, the paint work, carpets, Windows etc might not be clean enough !! |

Try telling Akbar Al Baker he won't be the first airline to get the neo!, He'd probably be angry enough to cancel the entire order and go instead with the MAX!!! |
