Wonders if JAL and ANA will put some of the 747-400's back in service? JAL has already scrapped some of them.

Imagine if they had taken the time to inspect them properly in the first place instead of rushing to get them done and have other nations order and use them!

As I said on the other thread about Japan grounding its 787 fleet, thank you, Boeing, for raising the audacity of mediocrity to a whole new level.

Lemme' guess: The bean-counters estimated it was cheaper for Boeing to settle potential lawsuits that might occur if, say, everyone on board a faulty 787 died in a horrific crash due to mechanical failure, than the ridiculous amount of money the company made off the sale of these and future 787s?

Sounds about right for a Fortune 500 company.

Again, thanks, Boeing.
