Sounds like a failure of the Project Management Office (PMO). And don't
forget the fact that three delays were announced in the span of about a
year.

Bad PMOs have a habit of creating a slippery slope of cutting corners
coupled with a reluctance to bring up issues for fear of your boss
getting fired.

Will be interesting to watch. I'd hate to be the one to get version one
of the plane.
