seriously...I'm in a state of disbelief..even though the picture is right there to see.. Why ? SQ wants its planes, and Airbus wants to speed up deliveries ...

It's pretty common to move to the DC after two test flights. based on what I've seen this is the first A350 frame that went to delivery center after just 2 flights. You're vastly more experienced in this forum than I, your word is gospel as far as I'm concerned. will look keenly as all future frames especially CX with regards to the amount of flights prior to sent to the DC.

I guess you just didn't care about before as the majority had 2 flights, some 3 and only MSN 6, 7 and 15 had more flights before CAF. 3 of the 4 delivered CX had just 2 flights.

Lets see if she goes home next week as per the attached link.
