BOEING 787

It's actually amazing when you consider the problems that Boeing is having with structural situations on their new Dreamliner 787.

With carbon fibers and carbon composites and robotic engineering advancing to incredible heights in all forms of manufacturing...why would the most competent airline maker be having extended problems?

The 787 was originally suppose to fly in 2007 and be fully integrated within the system by 2008.
Now they are hopping for sometime in 2010.

They should have never moved their corporate office from Seattle to Chicago. Everybody knows that while Chicago is a great city there are certain things that just take place which confuse people.......THE CUBS....THE CORRUPTION....THE GOOFY GOVERNOR....

The 787 was designed to weight much less than other planes and fly much further on less gas.

Maybe expectations by structural engineers who use medical marijuana created a false ceiling of achievement.

Delusions of grandeur can affect all walks of life and degrees in engineering don't always guarantee success.

MAYBE BOEING USES TOO MANY BOEINGBONGS.

I bet they are cool looking and don't weight very much.

Also perhaps one should look at the amount of layoffs in the last two years at Boeing and see if perhaps that could be part of the problem.

The Dreamliner is on hold and it's just another economic indicator that doesn't look good....but Transformers opens today so who really cares.
