"Concorde was grounded for 16 months, so 10 for the 787 looks about right" True but Concorde was long out of production then, meanwhile Boeing are producing 10(+?) 787's per month - parking space must be getting a bit tight now. Assuming the return to flight is delayed that long I'd have thought they'll have to slow / stop production soon with all the added cost implications.
