The FAA say they will release final certification tomorrow 24/04, the 4 TOM 787 fully built just need fix installed & test flights before delivery, still working on July for introduction on Long Haul but as 4 a/c being delivered now close together the final flight & Cabin Crew training can be completed quicker, they still plan to run them on a number of short haul routes to accru pilot hours/sectors to allow ETOPS L/H operations, once FAA give final go ahead tomorrow TOM will know delivery dates from Boeing! Boeing currently have 30 teams worldwide starting the installation of fix as well as teams at their plant so it may not be that long before they arrive in UK ......
