Michael Bair, the former head of the 787 program,
"I don't think that you'll hear a sucking sound of production jobs moving away from Seattle" to South Carolina, he said. "But future aircraft lines will be built like the 787, and that means final assembly can be pretty much anywhere

Boeing could rehire the Boeing retiree and transfer the 19,000 Defense and Space Worker to Everett to work on the existing workmanship problems and the production rate issues of 10 787 per month, surpassing the existing 50 787 in the last four years and 40 748-8 in the last two years

Not to worry the 787 has two lithium-ion battery the other battery is in the nose where the pilot are at, under the cockpit floor in hell hole where all the aircraft LRU boxes and wiring is located at
But the Boeing Stock Analyst that are not aircraft technology experts have stated that 787 problems are just normal teething problems! BATTERY FIRE AND LEAKING FLAMMABLE FUEL LINES alone with the 787 being 4 years late
Boeing has been building aircraft since 1916
But the Head Line News and the FAA fine and Airlines cancel their orders and buying from Airbus are normal growing pain and teething problems too but the FAA does have a 18 to 24 months flight test programs for certification
and the Boeing stock has gone from $105 in 2005 to $ 75.23 today

======================...
Many battery types fall under strict transportation regulation. This is done for the safety of those handling them and the passengers traveling on a common carrier. Here are the rules in short.
In 2009, 3.3 billion Li-ion batteries were transported by air. Such air shipment is an ongoing concern, and an airline-pilot union has asked the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to ban them on passenger aircraft. From March 1991 to August 2010, batteries and battery-powered devices caused 113 recorded incidents with smoke, fire, extreme heat or explosion on passenger and cargo planes.
Boeing and the FAA may wanted to review the existing Flammability Standards For aircraft alone with Explosion Proof LRU and fire proof LRU boxes
What is the cost of lithium ion battery and the weight saving vs the cost of fixing Boeing image ?
