Slats...are you at the meetings where all the metrics are covered and the hard numbers are published? (Even with all the issues the plane is doing better than expected.) If so, PM me so we can meet at the next meeting. They, the 787s, are contributing in the now and doing well. Think how much better when the plane is fully operational and it capability will be even better.

A simple observation for this forum. People pass conjecture and opinion as fact all while being wrong or misguided and then either inflate or try and brow beat those that actually know(maybe years of oppression has taken its toll?".

I'm not asking to trust management but please refrain from "opinion and what I heard" asinine comments. These forums are thick with them. Opinion's here are barely half truths.
