I doubt it, parts for convoy 20 are already underway.

I think you may be right... I think forward fuselage pieces are sent to XFW from Saint-Nazaire before being shipped for convoy?... Fabien  |

Does that mean a September quarter delivery in 2014?

The above picture however shows the sections ready for a convoy, this could mean 2 things: > Delivery has been brought forward > The sections appear to be ready but there are not |

Otherwise 'looking ready, the parts are being put aside waiting for convoy, maybe in the same 'side area' where the parts of MSN117 are resting now'. Fabien  |
