Earlier this year Boeing 787 engineers were given some new instructions by the FAA (The US government's: Federal Aviation Authority). They were informed that if the aeroplane's electrical generators were left running for 248 days, they would enter fail-safe mode.

- The FAA directive is available on their website.
