   Boeing has received preliminary permission from the FAA to deliver the 787   
   Dreamliner again, sources report to Bloomberg news agency. The 787 Dreamliner   
   was not allowed to be delivered for almost two years because of construction   
   errors.   
       
   The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has approved Boeing's plans to   
   inspect and repair construction defects in the aircraft frame, insiders say.   
   The construction error was in the joining of parts of the hull of the   
   aircraft. At that time, holes were found in about twenty places that had not   
   been properly filled.   
       
   The approval of the FAA does not immediately mean that sales of the aircraft   
   type will pick up again. Boeing must first make the required repairs. The FAA   
   must then inspect and approve each aircraft separately. According to the   
   sources, Boeing aims to resume deliveries of the aircraft around August 8.   
       
   If the planes can be delivered again, Boeing may be able to make up for   
   previous financial damage from having to keep the aircraft on the ground. In   
   the second quarter of this year, Boeing achieved a sharply lower profit than a   
   year earlier, partly because of the production problems with the 787   
   Dreamliner.   
       
   Earlier this month, Boeing's commercial director Stan Deal said the aircraft   
   maker plans to ramp up production. With the delivery of the Dreamliners, the   
   stock will decrease, he said during the important Farnborough air show in the   
   United Kingdom.   
       
   There, Boeing took in more new orders for the first time than rival Airbus,   
   which did much better for years. Boeing received orders for 297 aircraft,   
   Airbus for only 85 aircraft. Boeing also expects global aviation to need more   
   than 2 million new employees over the next 20 years as its airliner fleet will   
   double as the pandemic is on its way.   
       
   Due to the production problems, quite a few finished aircraft are waiting on   
   the manufacturer's factory site.
