* JAL unsure it will get four 787s promised by end March
* JAL in talks with Boeing on new delivery dates
* ANA says delivery delays may be two or three months
* Boeing sticking to production schedule
TOKYO, Feb 7 (Reuters) - Flag carrier Japan Airlines said on Tuesday it no longer expects its first Dreamliner from Boeing Co. by the end of February as a fresh manufacturing glitch is seen adding pressure to an already-tight 787 production timetable.
The Japanese carrier known as JAL, which has ordered 35 of Boeing's advanced carbon composite aircraft, said it is now in talks with the aircraft builder for possible delivery in March.
"Negotiations are still ongoing" with Boeing, JAL spokeswoman Sze Hunn Yap said. JAL had expected four 787s by the end of March, but "with this development we are unsure."
