This is very bad news for Boeing. The plane is still very much in demand, I don't think we'll see orders cancelled over this. But a string of entry-into-service problems is really just the icing on the cake of a troubled design and manufacturing process.

A lot of the incidents over the last couple of weeks are totally routine (brakes, fuel leak) and would never have made the non-industry news had they not happened to a 787, but there are also some points of concern.

As usual, the truth lies somewhere in the middle, it's time to let the engineers get to work and get them flying again!
