Airbus Dossier Dishes Dirt On Boeing's 787 Program
|
European aviation giant Airbus has compiled a surprisingly comprehensive dossier detailing every aspect of archrival Boeing's work on the 787 Dreamliner, using information gleaned from Boeing's own suppliers and proprietary documentation to assemble a candid critique of the ambitious but troubled aircraft.
The 46-page document titled Boeing 787 Lessons Learnt examines every part of the aircraft's development, including key design, certification and production issues, to a degree rarely seen and calls into question the European aerospace consortium's intelligence gathering methods.
