EK Air Frame Delivery Info - 2012
I'm not sure if A6-EDV has been delivered. I know of some sources on the internet that have stated that it has been delivered. But no flight data etc... can be found for the usual call-sign UAE7380 nor the registration.
If A6-EDV has been delivered could this be the start of EK's process of refusing deliveries? Resulting in the aircraft being still "parked" at XFW?

The next B77W, A6-EGR, still without paint, is about to make its first flight, while A6-EGQ should be delivered in the next couple of days.

L/N = Line Number.
C/N = Serial Number of the airframe.
Type = Aircraft type (B777-31H(ER) etc...)
Hex = Mode S transponders (ICAO 24-bit address) transmit information about the aircraft to the SSR system, TCAS receivers on board aircraft and to the ADS-B system. Information includes the call sign of the aircraft and/or the transponder's permanent ICAO 24-bit address in the form of a hex code (e.g. 896211)
Sel-Cal = Selective Calling System. This system allows flight deck crews to be notified if ground crews are trying to communicate with the aircraft, even if the radio has been silenced.

Yes, very soon. They will delivery sometime in a couple days later.
One more thing. What about A6-EDW/X hasn't already delivery yet? Is that completion the wings inspection? This should have enough already.

Just a heads up, A6-EDD has re-entered service.
Re-started her services operating UAE005 / UAE006 (DXB-LHR-DXB) on the 09th of May.
As for the other registrations (A6-EDI, A6-EDK and A6-EDL) required inspections are still ongoing.
