MSN 217 (CA#1) moved to the flightline.
So yes. Chinese deliveries should commence soon. And i would bet that politics will make sure CA gets the first one.

#3 CA rolling out of FAL does not mean #3 CA delivered. see QR if you need a precedent.
This will likely not only be CA#1 delivery but China #1 delivery also.

MSN 167 is actually CA #1...MSN 178 is CA #2...MSN 217 is CA #3. At least according to the order that they were built. Delivery order is another matter!

If the rumors are true, the scheme will be a mash-up of the CI livery and Airbus Carbon livery (gray/black replaced with CI blue/purple). Can anyone from TLS confirm/ reject this?

So, 30+ deliveries by the end of the 5th month. How's that compared to last year?
