It would not be surprising if this one overtook the QR5.... I would not be surprised if MSN16 and MSN18 would overtake both MSN8 and MSN11, they seem to finish their test flights and go into limbo.

I Don´t think she was at the delivery center here. It looked like she was in the hangar behind the delivery center.

What's going on with the QR A350? It's not only the A350, but A380s too. They are really not in a hurry to take them. Would be interesting to know if they delay Boeing airplanes too. in my opinion Qatar has been lately acting as if they have financial problems... but I hope that they don't.

Actually, you're not alone with this opinion. I too have pondered this lately. QR seems to be in no hurry taking their frames and have been finding some kind of excuse to delay them over the past year. And their aircraft route assignment has been somewhat haphazard, when it comes to the new aircraft.

Well the profit stated for EK is astonishing "Emirates reported a net profit of $1.2 billion on revenues of $24.2" But understandable by their policy. Frankly their pricing is most aggressive so if with their pricing and quality of service can make such a profit, they are doing something right ! P.S. probably not propper in this thread but after reading the wsj article I simply had to comment.

Exactly. Don't think financial problems are the cause of any delays.
