Be sure to stay away from the Airbus A350 as well, lasernigel, since it also uses CFRP for it's fuselage.
All I'm trying to ask is a sensible question. What is Boeing's and now for that matter Airbus's SOP if a ground handling accident happens. How do you inspect carbon fiber for damage at an airport?

He probably should take the trains or the busses......much safer.
Flown in most aircraft and still do, and have high respect for pilots and maintenance staff. So the sarcasm isn't really warranted.
