After a tweet from Boeing Airplanes drifted through our social media transom earlier today [We’re working closely with @NTSB, our customer & other agencies regarding Monday’s 787 incident in Boston. http://ow.ly/gEtt4 #Boeing], we thought we’d share this infographic about the Dreamliner’s troubled evolution thus far.

E&T also has a detailed news story today about the Dreamliner’s problems, which is well worth reading to guage the level of support Boeing has from its customers worldwide.
