That's part of the pre-flight checks. Thanks XWB, seems we can expect FF soon after such persistent pre-flight activity...

I'm wondering though what is going on with MSN141 and MSN142,... might they be delayed, might MSN148 overtake them both??... Fabien

Oddly enough, MSN148 had its first engine run outside the power box. I watched it moving on FR24 yesterday and it stayed at the same spot as in the above picture.

Hello XWB
I observed the same yesterday! Maybe she is now on the way to the powerbox ;-)
