This bird might be the latest casualty from the Zodiac trouble.

This bird might be the latest casualty from the Zodiac trouble. I thought it is the seats issue that delaying the delivery but after reading the following not sure if it is seats (which means info is wrong in the tweet) or actual financial issues

It's interesting however that all planes are stucked,.... until May (B787 and MSN170....). Though both cases could be reason of that May-delay....

That gives the whole issue a new taste. I guess the Swissair-comparisons are going to start building up now.

Looking at MSN170's flight path it looks like this is a bit more of a second CFF because of a technical issue. I would guess that this does not have anything to do with financial matters.

Let's HOPE it is so. My own suspect is the other one...

Be careful with "financial" delays. Even if true (??), "stored due to financial reasons" does not necessarily mean that the airline is in financial trouble. Such a delay very often only means that part of the required legal documentation was not gathered in time.
