    Is this just teething pains that happen with every new aircraft or is there something really wrong with the 787? Are people just paying too much attention to every issue now?

    It does seem like it gets it's share of bad press almost every week.

    Japan Airlines Dreamliner returning to Boston - Las Vegas Sun News


    A Japan Airlines flight to Tokyo's Narita Airport is returning to Boston's Logan Airport because of a possible fuel pump issue on the Boeing 787 aircraft.

    It's the latest woe for the new Dreamliner aircraft after a lithium ion battery problem grounded the whole fleet in January and a fire on an Ethiopian Airlines plane last week.

    A Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman says the pilot of Japan Airlines Flight 7 didn't declare an emergency and the aircraft is burning off fuel before landing.
