Somehow the concept of "teething" is the issue. You EH-101 fans have a blurry memory of exactly what teething is!

PUP,

I wouldn't worry about heartbeats, I'd have a serious look at an EEG if I were you. Your point is that all bad EH-101 news is generated by folks out to get it.

In Canada, it is a shame...

ZH844,

So what is the bull that you complain about? It didn't have 5 crashes, all the fault of the design? It does fly more than 14 hours a month on average? The Canadans don't say they spend 22...
