9V-SMQ has had her Final Registration applied and is ready for Delivery.

A random question I just thought of: following SMR, do we know if the next A350 will be SMS or will they skip this registration due to possible misunderstandings about "sending SMS to..."?

That is an interesting question. It's anyone's guess as SQ#19 has yet to enter the Paint Hanger. Only time will tell.

They have used 9V-SMS before for their Boeing 747-412, so I don't see why not?

No worries, it's 2017 not 2007 - nobody sends SMS any more

Any updates on 9V-SMQ? She's not on FR24.

Yesterday, on my FR24 alert, 9V-SMQ was on Squawk7600 (radio failure), and when I clicked she was still sitting at TLS (Toulouse).

I see interesting. So is the delivery delayed then?

Lol, as far as the nose gear, I've seen the following of them oddly since SQ introduced 2 new 77W configs: WN which we knew was not born a 77WN, but a 2006 77W that is a 77WR, and WR, which is a 77WR, so anyone confused and flies SWR should think its a 77WR.

I also remember SQ using SMS, so what a nice way to talk about SQ's new A350 9V-SMS that will be delivered soon.

Delivery has been postponed to Monday (Departure time 22:00 Toulouse Time)

I was on one back from HK on Wednesday, up the back of the bus, and felt the aisle rather narrow, and the seats a bit cramped, certainly compared to the 777 up on Sunday.
