A339 DELIVERIES

[mitchja]

Looks like G-VEII is going into service today and heading to JFK as the VS9.

The VS9/10 route looks to be an A339 route now as I'm also on the VS9 next month and that's also showing as an A339.

My forthcoming VS9 was A330 then this morning A339 now back again to the A330-300 ……..

The next A339 due for delivery in May (MSN 2061) will be G-VSRB (Ruby Rebel). More details can be found here.

VS confirmed via twitter today that they already received it. Not sure how reliable it is is though.

LOL, that's Twitter (or X or what ever it's called now) for you! Refer them to their own press release as it's mentioned there as well:

.....The airline’s fifth Airbus A330neo, which will enter service from May,.....

Another way to check is by looking up the A/C registration using the online CAA G-INFO database search. No sign of VSRB in there yet. A/C only get added to that database on or around their date of delivery.

G-VSRB hasn’t done any test flights yet so is likely around 4-5 weeks away from delivery and will probably be delivered around the same time as G-VELJ, which has recently been painted and sports the Oscar flying icon.

Four assembled Virgin aircraft currently at Toulouse in various states of readiness.
G-VELJ/F-WZGM MSN 665 A350K at the flight line. Had its 1st test flight 26th April so about 3-4 weeks from delivery. Understand in Leisure config? Currently on stand M90 (can occasionally be viewed on Flight Radar)
G-VSRB/F-WWKD MSN 2061 A339 at the flight line. Arrived there before VELJ but then appeared to go back to the hanger. Currently no logged taxi/engine check or test flight but must be imminent. Parked next to VELJ on stand M110
G-VRIF/F-WWYN MSN 2070 A339 location?? Last logged on one of the 4 stands outside the A330 hangar at the end of March in primer presumably without engines
G-VEYR/F-WWYO (typo in the log?) MSN 2078 A339. Currently on stand 18C outside the A330 hanger in primer presumably without engines.
