Nigel and Herod,
Any fire in the upper passenger half or crown of this flammable epoxy FST loaded A/C is a clear and present safety hazard and should be addressed via an emergency AD ordering both grounding and full internal 360 degrees of fuselage insulation. But will it be the NTSB, JAA or EASA forcing our inglorious FAA to comply?
Also cancellation of any or all ETOPs certification might finally get Boeing's attention.
And dumping all Li-ion batteries, be they primary or secondary such as Honeywell's is required.
And note that the Airbus A350 is in the same FST sinking boat.
Your declaratory statement is without support specifically regarding the word "any"

I do however accept any opinions you may have in this regard as your own even though they are impossible to comply with.

Meanwhile let's see what the official investigators recommend
