Apparently Boeing is not currently in compliance, hence the

conflict
with FAA over certification of the Dreamliner.

What conflict?




http://www.wired.com/politics/securi...liner_security
Boeing's new 787 Dreamliner passenger jet may have a serious
security vulnerability in its onboard computer networks that

could
allow passengers to access the plane's control systems,

according
to the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration.


Larry, I don't see a conflict there between the FAA and Boeing.


If the FAA is pointing out a potential vulnerability in Boeing's
design, what would you call it?



Constructive criticsm.
But of course, I have a brain, so that;'s just me.
