We know H1 numbers, but for the suppliers who are struggling to meet the required pace, the production rate is probably still increasing in Q3 ... At this moment in time the suppliers are geared for 5 per month, What comes out at FAL is different. Its FAL that needs to up its game. After all, next year the roll out is supposed to be 5per m,onth. Welcome indeed flightdeck - frame loading is supposed to hit 5 a month end of Dec ? So the roll out rate won't hit 5 per month until March ish ? |

After all, next year the roll out is supposed to be 5per m,onth. Welcome to the forum, Flightdeck ! As Airbus is ramping up, the number of entries into FAL exceeds the number of rollouts, let alone deliveries. I think '5 per month next year' is the pace of entries, not deliveries since Airbus' official 2016 delivery forecast is 'at least 30'. As regards suppliers, Bregier recently dressed them down collectively for not meeting their commitments, but claimed Airbus was still on track to reach its 2015 delivery goal (15). We do have evidence of many frames moving fast inside the FAL. We don't know why some QR frames seem to be stuck at the delivery center (engine issue ? Cabin outfitting issue ?), but some insiders claim this is about to be fixed. |

next year the roll out is supposed to be 5per m,onth. That would be incorrect. From next year the assembly load will start at 5 per month. That's not the same as output. |
