MSN13 is not yet in FAL. Apparently Airbus is currently moving Station 59 to a new location, to make room for another Station 50. Assembly loading should resume once the work is finished. The supply chain is still on schedule, it basically means MSN13 sections are being stored somewhere.  |

Any idea how long it will take to get it all tooled up for station 50?

No idea. But more important is to have to new station 59 tooled up as soon as possible. Without S59, new A350s cannot enter final assembly.

Doesn't sound too promising if this means there was a hiccup somewhere reducing the frequency to one per month from Broughton? Unless it was planned
