I'm sure a number of areas have been identified already and modifications are in the pipeline. Could be that Boeing to try them on this aircraft first???


Anyone know how BA 787s doing? I haven't seen anything to suggest any issues.

Edit: Digging around revealed the following - "Problems have ranged from a leaky oxygen bottle that depleted the emergency oxygen supply to pilots and a power-supply issue in the electric brake system. Flights were delayed and cancelled as a result."

Snags that could happen at any time but if happening on consecutive days then it could be a bit of a pain. There may also be a spare parts supply issue??
