... Time is shortening for a delivery of MSN160 (QR4) this year, I'm now waiting to see what Airbus (and QR!!!) can do, knowing that it's never been done before (delivery same year of a frame rolled out so late ... Come on, Fabien, did you forget 2012 ? I remember a "stealthy" EK frame (MSN 112 ? - not sure) coming from nowhere to be delivered in time ! Granted, it was an EK frame, with an already stabilised delivery process ... If MSN 160 was an EK frame, it would easily be delivered this month. With QR, I don't know ... |

So, MSN 112 and MSN 160 were rolled out the same calendar day (November 26th) two years apart ... MSN 160 now is a bit late for first flight ...
I'll hope with you !

The Wikipedia page isn't always up-to-date.

MSN160 ferry flight is scheduled for this week. Excellent news ! As there is little time left, and we haven't seen this frame moving on the flightline yet, would the CFF also be a ferry flight ? |
