No comment on the delay. I just touched my first 787 related project today.


Of course... there's probably a lesson to be learned about doing an entirely new plane design using new processes, new suppliers, new manufacturing methods, and trying to do it all in a fraction of the time previously required to do even a new variant. But I don't know what that lesson is.
