• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

More Dreamliner Woes

When are they going to turn the Battery box into a in flight BBQ pit? If the darn aircraft is going to be in fire they better make use of it for somthing good!
 
It's unfortunate publicity for something as simple as just "teething pains".

New technology, hundreds of variables, trying to test every single anomaly... things are going to rear their ugly head from time to time. It happens on the Test Stand,and I bet it does on the Company Ramp, as well.

Personally, I think the folks in Seattle will figure this one out, too. Can't be perfect ALL the time, but you can't deny Boeing builds some damned good airplanes.

Wow,...and how long was the Dreamliner grounded before it was given a clean bill of health to take to the friendly skies again?
 
I was fixing to say that the "fire" occurred nowhere near the battery boxes! The cause of this particular fire is almost certainly something other than the Lith-Ion batteries... :isadizzy:
 
Unless it was the Lith-Ion batteries in a phone or laptop in the berthing area...:isadizzy:
