The B737 had been out of assembly line for a very long time and thoundsands of airframes were on the line worldwide by the time the rudder problem surfaced in 1989. The rudder issue ADs were quick.
The B787 fix is no where in sight...Every day whistleblowers are coming forward with information about all these outsourced sub contractors. The latest info is on the Batt chargers factory in 2006 that burned to the ground after one of these then test units caught on fire. It does not look good at the moment.
