787 Dreamliner Delay Resulting in Disappointment for Passengers and Parts Suppliers

The 787 Dreamliner is currently three years behind schedule because of multiple technical and budgetary issues which the Boeing Corporation has been experiencing, ultimately resulting in the slowing down of the huge project which has been in the works for some time now. So far there has been a lot of disappointment from eager passengers as well as parts supplier in the wake of further delays which are putting the company even further behind than they ever expected to be. Buyers around the world have been enticed with multiple promises of a passenger airliner which is more powerful and luxurious than anything ever to go up into the sky before it, sparking a lot of curiosity as well as anticipation.

Multiple buyers from countries around the world have already ordered a total of 847 jets and the first model hasn’t even been perfected yet. The amount of just one of these jets is $200 million, and despite how ridiculous the price tag might seem, this aircraft will employ some of the most sophisticated aeronautic technology known to man and is supposedly going to be faster than any passenger jet in the world. The jet was once expected to be ready by May of 2008 but since then the project has undergone a number of changes and technical problems which keep setting its finishing date farther and farther.

Boeing says that these planes will start appearing on the runways by Fall, although there are still many who are skeptical as to whether or not that is really going to happen, considering how many times it has been delayed in the past. Passengers and suppliers of parts are certainly looking forward to the finishing of these planes which will prove to be much different than anything else ever before them in history.

The last time a new aircraft was developed from Boeing was in 1995 when they came out with the 777, so this new development is certainly attracting a lot of attention from all sides. One thing is for sure: the new Dreamliner aircraft is sure to be good business for both airports across the country as well as Boeing which has expressed its deepest apologies for keeping passengers and parts suppliers waiting this long, but they claim that the results will be well worth the wait in the end.

Because of the delays on the project, airlines have been forced to delay opening up new routes and they are keeping older model airplanes flying passengers for perhaps longer than they would like to, but as for right now they have no choice in the matter. Boeing is certainly working hard to make sure that they meet their latest deadline which some say is tentative but Boeing insists that there will be no more delays on this particular project which has attracted quite a bit of attention. A majority of the parts suppliers for these new planes are located in Southern California and have already agreed to pay the costs of labor and tooling up front, only adding to the tension and frustration between them and Boeing.
