That's a very interesting and sometimes surprising analysis ! Thank you, Stealthmanbob. airinsight.com/2017/03/02/analysis-a320neo-flight-operations-february-2017/"The Bottom Line: The A320neo is off to an excellent start, with good initial reliability on both engines. P&W’s difficulties with production have been well documented, and the company is progressing in its recovery plan. The additional problems revealed earlier this week appear to focus primarily on one airline, which accounts for 57% of the flight cancellations but only 14.3% of departures. With the limited data available to us, we cannot draw a definitive conclusion regarding the reasons for cancellations, but we do expect reliability improvement as both engines continue to mature".

IndiGo seem to have been hugely spared statistically from GTF problems!

IndiGo seem to have been hugely spared statistically from GTF problems! It is interesting they represent 36% of starts overall - and ZERO cancellation ?

Below is a very good article on how the A320neo is going in service. aviationweek.com/commercial-aviation/airlines-praise-airbus-a320neo-performance-engine-issues-remainHere's a few bits of information from it (much more in the article) -Overall dispatch reliability is at 99.6% vs a target of 99.7% -Fuel burn matches or exceeds the 15% reduction in fuel burn per seat, even on short sectors with greater savings on longer sectors. (Some have even reported a 20% reduction due to a denser configuration) -Airbus plans to deliver around 200neos this year -Pratt's goal is to deliver 350-400 GTFs this year (presumably this includes all variants) and CFM 500 LEAPs (including the 1B for the MAX)

27th March, can this be possible? For me it looks that SQ A380 #20, F-WWAQ is on the right,, and SQ #20 was transfered to Hamburg on 23th March, but maybe I am wrong
