I was looking at this thread a bit more closely and realised that the same part (the forward fuselage) was spotted at XFW twice, once on the 12th of November ( link) and once more on the 11th of December ( link). This is leading me to believe that the part on the 11th of December was actually MSN7. Thoughts? I think you're right. So we have about 3-4 weeks between each shipment, that sounds about right.

MSN6 went back inside station 30 today. Outdoor ground tests have been completed.

MSN5 will roll out in April and fly in May. MSN6 was loaded into the FAL about 1 month later. Depending on the customer inspections, it should roll out in June or July at last, and fly in June or August at last. (from MSN5's thread:) There is a small slip in the schedule (first flight delayed to June 2014), but certification remains on track. ..meaning perhaps that MSN5 would then roll out in May I would assume? Then, we should maybe expect MSN6's roll out not before July?.. Fabien

July or August. MSN6 will stay in station 30 until June and move to station 20 for cabin furnishing afterwards. This process might take another month, followed by painting.

Not before mid-July. MSN6 has yet to go through station 20 and painting.
