FAA and Boeing Commercial to review safety of Boeing 787 Dreamliner

Screen shot from Reuters video news.

 

FAA (U.S. Federal Aviation Authority) and Boeing Commercial today (2013-01-10) announce a comprehensive review of the safety of the Boring 787 Dreamliner, following a string of electrical failure, fire and cracked windshield of the brand new aircraft type in recent weeks.

 

Currently 50 Boeing 787s are in service, including 6 in the U.S.

 

I've mentioned many times that I never pick a new (anything under 2 year-old) aircraft type when I book a flight. This is the reason. Yes, I look at many things when booking a flight.
