It might seem a lot, but these faults seem within the normal distribution of faults. I do think that for a very new aircraft these faults should not be happening anyway. It might be down to design faults or problems with the quality control. They fly parts all around the world and the chance of faults not been picked up could be high.

What is a bit worrying (at least for Boeing) is that the faults aren't all in the same part of the plane, so it's not down to a single faulty component.

Were the batteries made by Sony by any chance? _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Yes and the choice of a picture with all the emergency ramps out also adds to the fail. _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

Can't even do that right  . I was thinking 'fail plane' but 'error plane' is actually much better.

There appear to be six emergency ramps out. You cannot tell about the last because you cannot see it, and can only assume because the other rear cabin door is also open. _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted.
