I wonder if JAL has finally decided to value their money and demand a good job from Safran or are they simply waiting for more cheap plastic to finish assembling the cabin with the excuse of Covid19 and the supply chain.
MSN635 was spotted in full colours without engines in late August 2023, and no updates since. I guess it is a mix of when Safran actually delivered the cabins and when JAL has approved the quality of the delivered cabins. However, I wonder why they have not mounted the engines yet.
