After my sister in law flew over from Texas to the UK, and back again in one of these, I have been mulling this over.

I would prefer it if every member of Congress and Senate had flown it first.

However, when BA introduced the 747-400 plane to long haul to Asia, they had lots and lots of "electrical" problems. PPrune was not available for me to consult then. And I flew lots and lots of times on BA's new 747-400.s. - I ended up in Athens, Amsterdam, and overnight in Singapore due to these "electrical " problems.
........was that just because pprune was not around to scare me?

So I suspect the Dreamburner will turn out OK, eventually.
Anyway, the pilots are not all Daft, - so if they will fly it, I guess I can be a customer in it.
