If this picture was dated on the 9th, it could mean Airbus was trying to catch up some of the delays experienced earlier as the 9th was Saturday. Could it be that EADS is desperate to maintain a strict schedule?
In the mean time, this thing simply looks awesome! Can't wait to see it fly and eventually fly on one!
