787 Story by Dan Rather
Certified? You mean by the same folks that certified the Cessnas with fuel
caps that ingested water, the 737 with a goosey rudder, the 747 with

727s that hit a critical angle of attack and started digging giant gopher
holes...

Don't worry, I fully expect Boeing to be able to defend their design

certified.
