FAA revisits 787’s OK for lengthy over-water flights
FAA chief Michael Huerta said Tuesday his agency is reviewing the Boeing 787’s ETOPS certification, raising the possibility that permission to fly up to three hours’ distance from the closest airport may be restricted.

It's about time to let this plane fly again!
Could somebody explain for me -- a non-aviator -- why the 787's ETOPS certification should be in question?
Hasn't the 787 demonstrated its ETOPS capabilities over and over and over again ?
How is a 787's ETOPS certification any different from a 777's?

politics flies again.
isn't hurta the same clown who said that the 787 will not fly again until they can prove to me that it is 1000% ( yes,that is one thousand percent)safe.

If the battery problem is solved then I fail to see any reason to look at the ETOPS rating.I was sceptical about this airplane from the start even though I am a Boeing fan. I refuse to fly on Scarebus. Perhaps it was too much of a radical change in airplane construction. I was resisting change which is a stupid thing to do in the era in which we live. I hope the Dreamliner is going full strenght and full distance ASAP.
Though I have been a caustic critic of Boeing in the context of 787 , but all the hoopla regarding concerns other than Battery related ones were ofcourse exaggerated and misplaced .
I hope that Boeing have learnt their lessons well and will be more humble and more professional while tackling day to day operational and production matters as well as long term design projects .
