Solution to the problem of the Dreamliner that bothers the grounding.
Raymond Connor, executive vice president and head of commercial aircraft at Boeing, said they would not give up lithium-

Japan's Ministry of Transport said it was the first time a Boeing head office executive has visited Japan since the Dreamliner was grounded.
On the occasion of the visit, the Wall Street Journal reported that Boeing had differences with the Japanese company GS Yuasa, which produced lithium. ion batteries.

The American aircraft giant, while the airline is in a hurry to cut fuel costs, has made a big bet on its light aircraft, eager to put it back into the air.
However, the newspaper quoted people familiar with the matter as saying that GS Yuasa believes that Boeing's package of repairs will not eliminate all possible risks of the power package.

After Connor's comments, the company's listed shares rose more than 7% in afternoon trading.
The suspension of 50 dream flights around the world has thrown airlines into chaos, especially in Japan.

But Connor insists the plane is still a good bet.
"787 is the aircraft we developed with Japan and is still a game --
