787-10
First post here!
I'm a huge Dreamliner fan and was very excited for BA to get their 787-10. Obviously the aircraft appears good to go, so when are BA doing their delivery flight? I know it was scheduled for tomorrow but appears to have been pushed back again.

I mean it really is awful that an aircraft due in January is still having issues in June. Says a lot about Boeing.

I know it's easy to knock Boeing at the moment due to the amount of scrutiny and publicity they've had over the past two years. I bet Airbus are thankful it's not them under the spotlight. Probably why they haven't been gloating at Boeing's issues pre-Covid.
But yeah, a six month delay in normal times is far too much and I'm sure the airlines are compensated for the delays.
In other news, Boeing announced their May facts and figures today. No 787s delivered the whole month. That hasn't happened since 2013. Tough times!
