SHOCKER: 787 program faces...another delay!

A Goldman Sachs report recently released is indicating that the Boeing 787 program is about to hit another delay. This whole project has taught them a thing or two about supply chains. New power-up time frames are looking at April, with maybe...maybe a first flight by June. Deliveries of the first aircraft are now slipping to 3Q 2009. Boeing's thoughts are parallel to George W. Bush's comments on the recession: "What delays? I wouldn't call this a delay."
