With the way the undelivered 789's are stored in two groups at VCV, with one Qantas 789 in the western group ~8 from the head of the line, and the other two (one of which is ZNN) in the eastern group also ~8 from the head of the line, they are way down the queue.

Re the LH birds - The first two were originally destined for Vistara, and have undergone repainting and additional C flights for their new owner. The next one is ex Suparna, then another two ex Vistara, making 5 in all that LH are taking off Boeings hands.

All this is academic until Boeing & FAA sign off on the release of the completed planes - see the Airliners Net forum Boeing 787 Production/Delivery Thread
