When Will the Boeing 787 Finally Take Flight?

PSS: Boeing has yet to verify its performance claims via flight testing yet. I'll be interested to see the real data.

All right you two, go away! I have to do work. I'll continue this discussion tomorrow.

I'm still here. Dream up some justifications for your attacks against Boeing in the meantime. It will make tomorrow's frigid (0-15 deg) day a little more entertaining.

Go away, I have a final tomorrow. Leave me be to study! I promise I will thrash you all day tomorrow.

I fly a lot and I don't want to step into some crazy state-of-the-art weird shaped plane. I want tried and true reliability.

Interesting comment, as this airplane is neither tried nor true for reliability.

Interesting viewpoint, since incremental improvements in previously certified and proven-safe aircraft seem to have served us well. Perhaps you have a better model?
