Airbus has completed over 150h of flight testing with its A350 prototype, having resumed the campaign in August following a short break. The first test aircraft, MSN1, re-emerged in mid-August after undergoing modifications to its flight-test installation in July. These included the fitting of a device beneath the aft fuselage which appears to be linked to high-attitude take-off testing, although Airbus says these minimum-unstick tests have not yet been conducted and are not scheduled forthe "immediate future".
