After the 787 crisis, risks still loom for Boeing





Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner is carrying passengers again after a three-month ban on flights, but the company still faces potent risks related to the new, high-tech plane.


US regulators formally lifted flight restrictions last week after Boeing redesigned the lithium-ion battery system that overheated on two 787s in January, clearing the company to install the fix on the 50 jets delivered so far.


Ethiopian Airlines resumed passenger flights on Saturday, and other carriers, including Japan Airlines, All Nippon Airways and United Airlines, plan to resume service in May and June.
