And the production line has been shut down for the third time due to issues with the forward pressure bulkhead. The sad Shyte show that used to be the world leader in airliner design continues its spiral down the drain.

Personally I think the issue of lightning protection for composite airframes is going to be a much bigger deal for Boeing than they want to admit. Looking at the damage I am surprised that the window did not fail.
