NTSB sending clear signal to Boeing
Bean counters should not rush into solutions for the sake of airplane image or whatso ever is their goal. I believe NTSB officials with safety minded is calling for bat system modification guided by rootcause of incident. I quote from a japan newspaper.
"Mr. Sinnett said that all of their testing and analysis has concluded the only way a thermal runaway could occur is through overcharging. Boeing’s original designs have four layers of protection against overcharging. A review of data stored on the flight data recorder showed that the system had been “properly charged.”
i am quoting this because Boeing and his beancounters seem to divert from the objective: SAFETY FIRST
1 did thermal runaway really occur?
2 is the thermal runaway due to overcharging?
3 does "system properly charged" = no thermal runaway?
in the mood to get the airplane quickly back into air some hints for solution are being lost. I believe thorough investigations will definitely pave the way for getting the dreamliner back into service for comfort and safe flights.
in case I mistakenly judge please feel free to comment on this. thanks...
