According to one or two posters in the AV Herald thread, apparently this is a known weakness of 767 (763?). Maybe corrected, as 763F is still being produced, while no pax 767 is manufactured anymore.

But certainly not glossing over the metal fatigue factor either.

With continuing 787 delivery problems, I'm sure UA is not thrilled to have a widebody out of service
