Poll: Would You Ride The 787 On Its First Return-To-Service Flight?

 The nightmare for the Dreamliner may be soon ending. From what I've seen, Boeing has a fix in mind for the battery overheat problem and is looking to the FAA to approve it and release the airplane back into service.

 While there's no way of knowing exactly when the airplane will resume scheduled service, I wondered if you would be willing to ride the airplane on its first 'return to service' flight? I can say, without hesitation, that I would definitely get on a 787 on the very first flight back into service.

 Please vote in the poll below to show where you stand on 787 confidence.

I THINK THAT THEY BLOWN THIS WHOLE ISSUE ON THE 787 DREAMLINER
TOTALLY "oUT-OF-PROPORTION AND MADE IT A REDICULOUS POLITICAL ISSUE
I HAVE EVERY CONFIDENCE IN BOEING EQUIPMENT.

This piece of junk isn't a Boeing, it's a wannabe Airbus. I may have to fly this plastic full scale model. My illustrious employer has ordered a bunch. All management cares about is fuel burn. It burns lots of fuel, and plastic, when it has an inflight fire.
