EEngr, dispatch reliability remains an area of concern - it's gotten better (over 98% last time I checked) but the target is over 99% so there is still work to do.


I see the 21.3 reports for all Boeing aircraft, and for the 787 they appear to be dominated by the APU and the VFSG (Variable Speed Starter Generators for those who don't speak 'Boeing'). The batteries appear to be doing OK.


BTW, last week there was a "lunch and learn" presentation on the Ethiopian fire damage repair at Heathrow - I would have loved to attend. Unfortunately I had a flight test that day and missed it
