Will it ever fly? in The Lounge Posted January 18, 2013 Being a worker-bee in Chicago, resident of Schaumburg, Boeing is one of bigger and better employers here. After their headquarters move here in 2001, they have actively and continually given back to the community: Adopt a River / Garfield Park Conservatory / Erickson Institute, just to name a few. I want the company to thrive, and the 787 to excell! As a frequent business flyer I do have a concerns about this aircraft. Teething, growing pains, etc, (call it what you want) has any other aircraft (old or new) gone through a 'review' as Secretary LaHood called for last week? The 787 has gone through over 8 years of stringent testing to get it airworthiness (?) certification, now they want to review it?? The ANA emergency landing / battery fire elevates my safety concerns. I, and probably others here, are afraid to fly?? No, just this particular aircraft. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2263126/Dreamliner-meltdown-hi-tech-Boeing-jets-grounded-Europe-U-S-amid-fears-electric-car-batteries-trigger-fires.html
