 Aviation HQ to All 
 Boeing 787 Dreamliner ... again ...

MSGID: 2:292/854 100c1431
During inspections, a manufacturing defect was discovered in the nose of some
Boeing 787 Dreamliners. 
 
The American aircraft manufacturer must therefore make adjustments to the
production process, according to the FAA.
 
Checks revealed problems in the forward bulkhead. Under certain circumstances
it could start to 'wrinkle'. According to the FAA, this is not a huge security
problem, but it does need to be adjusted. As a result, approximately 100
Dreamliners currently being built or waiting to be handed over to the customer
must be inspected.
 
Boeing has not yet formally responded to the issues. It is also not yet clear
whether Dreamliners that are already in service should be checked.
