Finally !!!!

But can anyone give a translation please for image 2 and 6 !? Please.
 
(1) successful completion of static test with 2.5G load limit
(2) successful first ignition of both engines

Cake for the occassion.


Thanks a lot ... but concerning the "successful completion of static test with 2.5G load limit" ... isn't this a bit low?? As far as I know, both Airbus and Boeing are testing their planes up to even higher loads. Or was this simply the completion for the 2.5G load limit and further tests will follow?

This is limit load static test before maiden flight, not extreme load test to which Boeing 787(for exmaple) were subjected some 2 years after maiden flight.
 
Thanks !

Any clues what the current schedule for the maiden flight ?? ... some reports assume only in the second quarter 2017.
