WTF Am I Missing?
I've been following this issue and I guess I'm still missing one critical part. Reports and Boeing information suggest that only SOME 787s are affected. To my eye that suggests that they have a fix and have already applied it to SOME airplanes. While it could be as simple as a revised software load, it might also be a hard-coded (hardware) modification that is required. Either way, it appears that they know what needs to be done. The next leap has to be, So Why Has it Not Already Been Applied to the Entire Fleet? This is a new fleet, so the fix is Boeing's responsibility, either last week or next week. Again, What Am I Missing? Is this not already FAR past the need for a formal AD?
