Default Is the 787 a failure ?

If enough people won't fly on a 787


Sorry, that's just not reality. Most folks don't know or care what
model plane they are flying in. They walk down a jetway into a cabin,
and that's all they care about.

Further, we could make a pretty impressive list of planes that have had
terrible, well-known, accidents caused by design issues and continued in
popular service for decades.
