Norwegian Air 787-8 hydraulic pump fails in Bangkok
Norwegian Air suffered yet another Boeing 787 Dreamliner breakdown on Friday Sept. 27 when a hydraulic pump failed, delaying a flight to Stockholm from Bangkok, a spokesman. Norwegian’s two 787s have broken down several times this month. The company could not say how long the plane would be grounded this time and was making alternative travel arrangements for passengers should the delay prove extensive.

That's why there are three independent pumps. We already know that the Norweigans cannot service these machines and Boeing is, as I post, oufitting Stavanger with a parts and staff training regime. Sensationalist journalism. Hydraulic pump failure is not uncommon...especially if someone is stealing the filters.
I can not go along with the theory that "sensational journalism" is the perp here. Boeing has a PR problem that is significant and potentially the 787 is a monumental failure. Time will tell...
The aviation industry has always had its share of criminals. The journalists would do well to try and buy some Boeing parts on the "black market" and see where that leads them. But they ain't got the guts to do that...have they?
Journalists scream 'free press' and when pressed claim 'sources' and whenever challenged to identify them they claim 'sources' and refuse to back up their journalism.
These sources are actually mythical beings and the truth is that these 'journalists' use their pretend friends to justify the huge damage they cause when they publish as 'the truth' what they believe is what others tell them but in fact is nothing of the sort.
They call this democracy so if this be democracy give me communism and a licenced media that actually reports the truth, something free press journalist know nothing about. I believe that the US constitution created this mess and hey presto, you get the consequences of such a folly.
If I chose to report such inaccurate garbage I would be hauled before the courts charged with libel but if a so called 'journalist' published exactly the same he would be happily sat in a bar somewhere in the knowledge that he was untouchable because he represented the free 'press'.....it make me vomit!
Getting to the point of this thread, the B787 seems to be suffering from poorly manufactured parts and a cumulative consequence is a series of 'failures' and thus a rampant negative an irresponsible 'press'. I have no problem with reporters reporting but have no time for so called journalists shaping the opinions of intelligent people and damaging businesses and the jobs of those employed within them.

Reuters is reporting Norwegian Air is returning the airplane to Boeing: http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/09/28/us-boeing-norwegian-dreamliner-idUSBRE98R06E20130928
The good old A340. My fave machine.
It would be interesting to see a list of other hydraulic pump failures by aircraft type that occurred on the same day.
