Airbus Has 107 A350F Orders & The 1st Delivery Is Already Under Pressure

Airbus’ media team told Simple Flying in a statement that the A350F’s“first flight will be later in 2026 and the first delivery will be in H2 2027.” However, Reuters reported that industry sources said flight trials typically take 12 to 15 months. As a result, there appears to be a discrepancy. The flight trials will have to be rapid, with little going wrong, to have the aircraft ready for commercial service during the second half of 2027.
