More than social media, it is the traditional media that is making the bad seem ugly. If anything, it would only depend, on technical scrutiny, and not the opinion of people, if Boeing ever decides to kill 787.

Boeing would be over if they decided to kill the 787 -- there's literally no way that's going to happen.

Why would they kill it? The problems really aren't that bad and are being blown way out of proportion.

They'll have a fix for this within a couple of weeks, tops.

New planes have issues. They'll figure it out. Grounding was the right call for now.
