Somewhat off-topic: When I saw that engine test picture I posted I wondered why it looked familiar... then I realized that's where an EY A340 was "crashed" pre-delivery in 2007 into the wall.

9V-SMA has completed its Rejected Take Off (RTO). We can expect its first flight very soon.Comment

Images from the 9V-SMA RTO test:
What an absolutely gorgeous beauty. Seriously, the most beautiful aircraft that plies the skies right now, and the most beautiful aircraft to wear the Singapore Airlines livery.
EDIT: And 3 more shots from yesterday's RTO test!

Whilst I do think this aircraft look beautiful "overall", I still don't like the nose of the A350 though. Something just doesn't feel right, to me anyway...Originally posted by shikhargpt View Post

And there she flies! I simply have no words for how beautiful it looks in flight, more-so than on the ground!

The lack of blacks (and shadows) was bothering me greatly in Jujug's first photo because it's a great angle. Had a quick and dirty go at fixing it on my phone.Originally posted by SQKevin View PostMore from 9V-SMA's First Flight.

Looking good!
Are they recycling the 744 registrations for the A350? (9V-SMA was used for SQ's first 744).Comment

wow, beautiful !
Is SMA already fitted with a cabin interiors ?
Anyone knows when the charter flight would be ? Would SQ communicate on this ? I remember in 2007, CNA had live coverage of the A380 landing (SQ was the launch client, not quite the same as today though)...Comment

It looks that way, yes. The list I saw indicates that the A350s will have SM* registries. Where they go to once they run of letters there isn't yet known, but that won't be for some time.Originally posted by SQGamespeed View PostLooking good!

9V-SL* perhaps? I wonder which regs the ULRs will use.Originally posted by leops1984 View PostComment
