Two mentalities equally correct:
1) B787 is getting over-exposed and modern planes do have issues all the time no matter what model you're flying.
2) At the same time, we're talking about hundreds if not thousands of planes flying for other models. B787, with only 60+ flying so far, seems to average an incident every few days. Also, the incidents are not all just trivial issues like warning lights malfunction or flap not working properly. Fire and smoke are the worst things that can happen to a plane, and it seems to happen with *regularity* with the B787, that is a cause for concern.
During a test flight the electric wires on-board started to caught fire, the root cause for that was never found either. Boeing simply redesigned the wire positioning, installed a *software upgrade*, and called it *fixed.* Just like they called the battery issue *fixed* when they have no idea what caused the fire. Now smoke and burns are coming out of the plane's rare. This is not good.
