Do you think I do not recognize you this time? Or did you simply forget the answer? Stop repeating the same thing.” There was laughter all over the hanger. I do not even remember if he answered or not. Another question was from local Al-Jazeera English channel about the 787 program. Al-Baker slammed Al-Jazeera. “Just because there are a couple of employees on drugs, doesn’t mean the whole company is on drugs! It is normal in every major company to have disgruntled former employees to show the wrong image of the company. We would never put any passenger at risk in flying any of our planes. The 787 despite some technical problems like software, flaps, ect.. is 100% safe to fly” The quote is not exactly what he said, but the content is correct.
