A lot of activity last week
I looked at Flight aware for tests flights by Bombardier at Montreal. There was a lot of activity ; 22 tests flights from monday to sunday by many different jets. . At least, I identify 2 delivery flights yesterday.
Expect a lot delivery this week.

i forgot to mention that 22 test flight does not mean 22 jets are doing test flight as one jet may go through 4 or 5 or more test flight before delivereies, last test flight a jet go through could last 4-5 hours so 22 test flight might means there are about 4 jets doing test flight

Four aircraft that test pre-delivery. It's perfect to start the week.

This type of activity levels should be constant to year end. We need 4 or 5 planes continuously doing test flights to meet delivery targets. That being said, I trust that Martel has it under control. He has continuously under promised and over delivered despite unique conditions since the pandemic. Stay patient. GLTAL

My estimation is up to 13 different jets. But tests flight could be made before the finishing job, long before the delivery. There are also tests flight before the delivery and delivery flights. These latter are easily reconizable by their pattern.
