MSN007 (Production A380) has made its way out of the hanger and on the flightline in preparation for its first flight after major refurbishment (Having EA engine installed). This will be delivered to Emirates in late Q4 2009. It can be seen below behind MSN023.
I other news MSN023 will make its first flight sometime this week and then be ferried to Hamburg before being delivered in Q4 2009. There are two photos that came up on Flickr today showing parts of most likely MSN051 (SQ). One is a tail which does not have the Singapore colour scheme. All of Singapore Airlines A380 before have had the a Singapore tail (MSN005 only had the colour not logo). So people are speculating that this may be due to Singapore deferring the order or even selling the frame. A380 Production is yet to confirm this yet.
We will try and update you on this matter this week.
