Although it would be a temptation to spray paint a T on the end, I suspect it also indicates that 9V-SHO will be skipped.
All combinations of H, I, O & X would created two-letter landing gear flap codes that cannot be distinguished from their reverse. HI and IH would be identical when turned upside down from each other, as would HO & OH. As X is never used, that wouldn't become an issue anyway.

The whole skipping of SKO and SWC thing can stay a mystery I think. Spent enough of my time pondering it!

Apparently Airbus deems the 359 also viable for QF's Project Sunrise: https://www.flightglobal.com/news/ar...-qanta-458641/
If they go with A359s, I wonder if SQ could also take some as well, and then convert the SGx series back to regular A359 spec?an infrastructure geek
