All of the Dreamliner's delays are not surprising when considering all the new technology being used. It will be worth the wait when the Dreamliner does into service.  :D

The Qatar Airways Chief Executive acts like Airbus has not failed as well. If you think about it, the Dreamliner is taking as long as the A350 will take to enter service.

Um, delays don't mean failure. He's just a business man in to much of a hurry, and besides the 787 might not carry as many but the 787 will trump the a380 in so many more ways, Fuel efficiency, comfort, its a much more agile aircraft and doesn't look like a whale taxiing at the airport.

It hasn't failed its just the exec has no patience. Like Brandon said it will be far worth the delays.

And you know when he finally gets his 787's he'll take it all back.
