What happens to a Dreamliner deferred?

Well, it is now official. After stating yesterday that the first 787 would deliver on time, Boeing today announced that first delivery will slide from May '08 to November/December '08. First flight is now sliding to first quarter '08.

I can't say I'm surprised, except that its taken this long for company officials to admit what industry analysts have been saying for months.

Hopefully our senior executives haven't been selling their company stock lately, or we'll be copying Airbus in yet another negative fashion.
