 Always in the news this story is not "up in the air" - we might just "wing it"

Boeing has delayed deliveries of its key 787 Dreamliner aircraft by six months because of a shortage of parts in what is a setback to its attempts to win back its position as the world's biggest planemaker.

I have problems trying to keep up with the games which are being played between Boeing and European one ( the name escapes me for the minute)- they both seem to be struggling to get their acts together with these big "flagship" aircraft - I guess that the stakes are high and the customers are 'Stuck in the middle" I can understand why the majors always seem to split their orders and not put all there eggs (in this case planes) in one basket - when to me, it would seem more logical to go with either one or the other - such is life
