Last month we managed to get a picture of MSN035′s (Korean Air #1) tail in Final Assembly. Well yesterday, one of our spotters managed to catch a bit of MSN035.
The picture suggests that she has had her flaps and slats installed, and also some belly fairing. She is scheduled to leave Final Assembly in September.
MSN049 (Air France #4) has been rolled out of the Outfitting hangars, But due to the summer break she wont be delivered to late August or early September.
MSN050 (Qantas #8) will now transfer to Hamburg next week.
