ANA 'Disappointed' In Dreamliner Delivery Schedule

Launch Customer Has Ordered 55 Of The New Airliners

All Nippon Airways (ANA) CEO Shinichiro Ito said Monday that his airline is "pushing" Boeing for a new delivery schedule for its long-delayed 787 Dreamliner. The aircraft suffered another delay in November when a fire in an electrical panel forced a halt to flight testing of the aircraft.

Ito said the airline was also insisting on a "detailed cause of the irregularities," according to a report from the French news service AFP. ANA was scheduled to receive its first Dreamliner two years ago, but Boeing had recently revised its first deliveries into 2011 before the issue with the electrical panel.

ANA has had to re-structure its plans to retire older aircraft as the delivery date continues to slip. Still, Ito said he has no regrets about placing a large order for the jets. "It's a dream," he told the service. He said the airlines' top priority is "an excellent fleet."
