Boeing Retreats on Detachable Wing Design

"Boeing stock takes a beating" as engineers work out how to reinforce the spot where the carbon-fiber composite wings meet the fuselage. Not only are people saying it'll delay a first 787 flight by months, but Boeing engineers are hanging their heads low...or privately trash-talking management that ignored the problem for on-time promises: "Although the issue popped up during tests last month, Boeing initially didn't think it would affect the first flight," reports the Everett Herald's Michelle Dunlop.
