        Dear Philipp,

        Thank you for your updates. I am sure you are aware about the on-going debate as to weather UL is actually getting these A350's or not. No one seems to know what it going on. Is there any way for you to confirm 100% that this order has NOT been cancelled ?
        The order has NOT been cancelled yet, but yes, UL is reluctant to take these A350s
        UL will probably have to take the first three because they are leased from AerCap and because three of their A330-200s are to be returned to the lessor as soon as 2017
        Regarding the others on order, we cannot confirm that these aircraft on order won't be cancelled.

        Kind regards,
        Philipp and Lucas

              I don't know whether this document is official or not but according to this the first A350(UL#1) will be delivered in June 2016. Does A350 production faced a lot of delays recently?

                          Can you please let us know what is being planned for the remaining three aircraft of the 332 fleet? Are they set for retirement with no replacement (i.e. wide body fleet stays at 10)?

                            hello ...
                            as far as I know it was initially scheduled to be here in April. Then July and now August.
                            Since this is a brand new aircraft type, lots of preparation has to be done from our end. Also we need to get all the new spares and tools etc. ( this wasn't a problem when we getting 333s because spares were pretty much identical to 332s and 343s)
                            This is why it takes some time... and I'm sure Airbus is struggling too

                              hello..
                              I honestly have no idea about the registration code.
                              They have not yet decided about the engineering crew but I got a chance to be in the material handling team ( preparations) ... its a tough job because this is a brand new aircraft type

                                I cannot make such a statement mate but yes, as far as I know we'll be getting our first 350 in August. ( +/- 1 month may be)
                                preparation is going on to receive it atm
