New York-based Bernstein Research said Boeing will not reach its target for a 787 production rate of 10 a month until 2015. In a client report issued Monday, Bernstein said it had lowered its 787 outlook “due to our concerns of additional program delays.”
Bernstein said in the report, “As a result, we have taken 787 deliveries down to six aircraft this year (from eight), and 51 in 2012 (from 61) and shifted these to the 2013-2014 time horizons
Den er blitt omtalt som en revolusjon i luftfarten, men har så langt vært preget av utsettelser. I dag har den endelig fløyet.
Following the 787-9's critical design review, Boeing said the first delivery is "expected in early 2014, although we continue to look for opportunities to regain schedule".
In July, a Boeing spokeswoman said that late 2013 remained the target for delivering the first 787-9 to launch customer Air New Zealand. She qualified her remarks, however, saying that the company is "continually re-assessing that schedule".
Although Boeing has started deliveries of its three-years-late 787 Dreamliner, launch customer ANA is grousing about another costly hiccup in the timeline. Boeing touted the ease of transition to the 787 as a selling point saying 777 pilots could make the switch in about a week. ANA says it's spending five weeks to train Dreamliner pilots and it's not finished reworking the curriculum set forth by the manufacturer.

It will be the aircraft's last flight for a while, as the first 787 will be decommissioned as a test aircraft, Boeing confirms.
Its Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 engines will be removed and it will remain in long-term storage before finding its way to a permanent spot in a museum, likely not far from the first 757, 747 and 737.
