No where in that AP report does it say there were three fires. All
it says is that there were three incidents where the windshield
heat wiring shorted out and resulted in a cracked windshield.

I knew I could expect foul-mouthed Tom to defend Boeing and the
airlines.

tommy is not far enough up the food chain for those to be his
advocacies.

I would think that if windshield wires got hot enough to
crack glass that would qualify as a fire, even to the FAA. I'm sure
it would have had to be hot enough to melt the insulation on the
wires leading to the window.

Fire means smoke and that is a completely different issue. The 777
has had one fire, created by the misapplication of a connector in a
PAX entertainment system; years ago.
