MSN004 will be in HAM on 19/06 from 1pm to 5pm! Fabien  For what purpose, am I missing something? It's hot today and Airbus in TLS ran out of beer, so they went shopping in Germany. |

I see a fair amount of sensors just aft of engine number 3. Presumably, this is the pylon being tested for the neo. Linie 9, are you able to post here a cropped image of higher resolution so that we can have a closer look at this area around the number 3 pylon?  |

Sure All pylons on starboard side are different to those on portside and there are lots of sensors not only on the inner 4 pylons crop of right wing MSN 004 - 2013.07.19  |

Logos for Air Austral and Kingfisher have not been removed, Airbus keeping their hopes up?
But still no Transaero Airlines logo. Sloppy?

For legal reasons, Airbus must stick to the contracts until they receive official notice that it is cancelled. It is not for the supplier to declare his customers 'dead' or bankrupt and to cancel their orders, especially if the customer has paid a down payment which the supplier intends to keep.

I know, but I don't think Airbus has any hopes left they will ever deliver an aircraft to Kingfisher (not even an A320....) Air Austral is still in business but very short of cash. And they will need that to pay for those A380's. Second thought: Unless, of course, Doric is willing to become involved with this order........ Hey, could be interesting  |

I think Airbus could do whatever they would like with the stickers, stickers are just stickers,... Though legally the order would still be valid, as there is close to 0% chance for Kingfisher to take the planes for example they could logically take the sticker off MSN004... ...and replace it with the one from Transaero for example..!..

Fabien Sure, but the only sticker they actually removed until now was Kingdom Holding, after Prince Al-Waleed sold his A380 to a, yet unknown, other party. Msn004 is sort of flying all over the world doing all kinds of tests. I expected Airbus to apply the Transaero logo by now. Not just for Airbus' sake, but it's great PR for Transaero as well. |
