We have beenfollowing the Boeing ’s 787 Dreamlinerfor a longsighted time . It ’s a beautiful aircraft , which allegedly allow with a much - better flight experience — less noise , bigger windows , more infinite , and respectable fuel efficiency — thanks to its newfangled building processes and technologies . However , a newfangled delay in itsLEGO - comparable manufacturing processshows that Boeing is deliver very serious difficulty with its mass yield , which will put them a whooping 18 calendar month behind their original docket .

According to the always entertaining Richard Quest , the holdup have been caused exactly by the new technologies and manufacture strategies that Boeing is using for the 787 . Mainly , the biggest problem seems to be with the carbon fiber modules being manufactured all through the existence , which then have to be convey and put together atBoeing ’s Everett factoryin Washington , using theirgigantic lading Dreamlifter .

But as Quest points out , there will have to be major changes to this cognitive operation because , at the end of the 24-hour interval , “ the realness is that they have distinguish they ca n’t do it ” in this way . One of these prompt and most serious changes , will likely require a redesign of the 787 ’s wingbox .
As a resultant role of these troubles , Boeing has ended with “ new retool schedules ” and an “ extraordinary embarrassment ” comparable to the mortification that EADS had as a result of the multiple time lag on theAirbus A380 .

The even - sorry matter is that , while it ’s apprehensible that companies like Boeing and EADS may have black eye in the mental synthesis of these giant next - generation machine , the problem does n’t terminate in the technical embarrassment : Boeing will have to ante up compensation to the airlines who have already bought 850 Dreamliners — which is “ far more than any other aircraft at this stage”—and were expect them on metre .
