I'd say there's zero chance a United, ANA, or second Ethiopian get delivered this month now. Also China Southern, Hainan, and a second Qatar gotta be definitely scratched for October again just due to test flight schedule slippage.TurtleLuvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18186130057500645159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553457216067299334.post-8684079598359225602012-10-11T15:52:38.684-04:002012-10-11T15:52:38.684-04:00That tail number is assigned to a Beech King Air 1...That tail number is assigned to a Beech King Air 100 hardly a 787:<br /><br />http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N264PAUreshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10277326957559578045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7553457216067299334.post-3626107668951569342012-10-11T15:50:03.024-04:002012-10-11T15:50:03.024-04:00That serial number is assigned to a 787 that was a...That serial number is assigned to a 787 that was already delivered to JAL.

I guess some of the hold ups might be because Boeing invests resources into frames that gets delayed by its customers. <br /><br />When this time could have been spent on a frame with a customer that wants its frames as fast as possible.<br /><br />Worst must be those customers that delay acceptance and then in the end whine about not getting its frames fast enough...<br /><br />4 new a month and 4 with engines in EMC, that will add 8 frames over the next month maybe.. I say they need to repeat the september numbers for many moths now. If they can deliver about 2 or 3 frames more than gets added to flight line every month that will ease the situation some.<br /><br />All the rented space must cost Boeing a lot, a whole runway..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
