"But why Is she due to delivery in june when she is already on the flightline and will be prepared for first flight?" Sorry to say, this would be proverbially , "many times told, thats true". Can somebody prove that there will be no delivery of A350 till June, or official statement of QTR MSN delivery happen June xx ? Assuming that there are only three MSN painted now (9+10+14), all of them are from same batch or in other word similar in basic condition and need for rework, but with substantial difference in time spent in FAL. I expect longer term for VN MSN14 a it is first VN A350. Have to point out that decisive for rework is Certification date and set up of to do list on each relevant plane form same batch. You cannot start works before. Taking into consideration learnig curve of reworks there is hardly reason why we do not see any delivery till June. |
