A380 Production Update: February 2009 (#5)

We have a few more updates. We thought MSN051, Singapore’s eleventh A380, was spotted yesterday. But we’ve been informed it’s MSN045, Singapore’s tenth, being towed into a hanger. We don’t know why yet.

We now also know that MSN027, Qantas’ fifth A380, has been towed out of the hangers with its engines attached. While we wondered earlier this week whether it was MSN027 or MSN029 (Qantas’ sixth), we now know it to be MSN027  (thanks to David Barrie) and we will add a picture as soon as possible.

In addition, MSN033, Air France’s first A380, had her first rejected take-off, and should fly during the weekend.
