Mid way through the 1st month of 2015, Boeing is setting it self up to deliver 10 787s. On the surface that may look like a good number especially when compared to January, 2014. However because several 787s that were supposed to be delivered late last year had been rescheduled to this month, there are expectations the deliveries in January were going to be higher than 10. Earlier information that was received indicated 12 deliveries in January but now those deliveries were pushed to later in the first quarter. Boeing needs to deliver a minimum of 11.5 787s per month for 2015 if it is to achieve its internal goal of delivering 138 787s. As I had said in a previous post, I doubt that Boeing will be able to deliver 138 787s and the final number will most likely be between 125 to 130.
Thus far there are about 5 aircraft that are ready for delivery but there are also 1 more that need to conduct its B-1 flight which is a 787-9 for Virgin Atlantic and a 4 others that have yet to conduct their C-1 flights. With 12 days left in the month it is possible for Boeing to all these aircraft tested and delivered but it will be cutting it close. I do expect the first 787 deliveries of 2015 to start this coming week, thus again Boeing is making all its 787 deliveries in the last half of the month.
The customers that will be be receiving their first 787s include American Airlines and Scoot while AerCap (LAN) will be taking its first 787-9.

In terms of production Boeing is well situated to roll out 10 787s (7 from Everett and 3 form North Charleston). They are also starting final assembly on 10 787s this month with the same number as roll outs from each final assembly locations.
Interestingly, Boeing is looking to deliver 3 787-9 this month as well as roll out 3 and start final assembly of 3 787-9s this month. I'll keep an eye on this but it does seem that for now, Boeing is going to keep the rate on the 787-9 at 3/month

It is easy to see Boeing will gradually front load the back of the month by March, where it will deliver during the first two weeks of each month and tests aircraft for delivery during the last two weeks for next months delivery. What it can't control is customer readiness for pick-up and it may add more aircraft into the aircraft slack awaiting customers for that customer inconsistency. Either way, all is caught up by years end. Boeing will average one more delivery a month over 2014's pacing.
Hi Uresh,
In your latest posts the link "Full 787 production table" (wich includes the already delivered 787's is dissapeared. Normally it is on top of the links under your post, but the last ones the mentioned one isn't there anymore.
any change to put it back? now I have to scroll down ttill november 2014 where the link stil exists.
It looks like Charleston has completed final assembly of it's first -9 in normal time, about 59 days... I guess the most important date is B1, but it seems promising. Uresh has there been any word on how that went?
L/N 291 and L/N 300 will not be for TUI Travel PLC TUIFly Nordic as mentioned in the tables, but will go to TUI Travel PLC Thomson.
Incorrect, multiple sources have told me that LN 291 and LN 300 are going to Nordic.
