Picking up from two threads in CivAv, it's curious why no one has started a topic here.....

It seems our Indian members have studiously avoided doing it out of modesty, so I took it upon myself to begin one. I say "First" for I recall a news item saying three BBJs were on order. So who's outfitting this first one and when is it due for completion?

(BTW, the big KE order also includes a lone BBJ which might be for the airline or destined for the government, as no SK presidential/PM a/c could be found on the DB.)

It will be fitted out by PATS in Delaware. Boeing delivered the first B-737-BBJ a few days ago. Here is Boeing's press release from yesterday.
