Several weeks ago, I covered a bizarre incident at Frankfurt Airport (FRA), where a Lufthansa Dreamliner had a gear collapse at its gate, causing some injuries.

you are truly one scared little boy trying desperately to salvage your own credibility. I said multiple times in the comments below that there is no evidence this was Boeing's problem. You are either hopelessly incapable of reading or so desperate to cover for your own repeated false statements about any number of issues that you resort to flat out lies. The evidence below is quite clear that I DID NOT blame Boeing
