The Department of Transportation will announce a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art Boeing 787 Dreamliner, including its "design, manufacture and assembly," officials said.​
The review of the aircraft's critical systems comes after a rough week for the planes: A fire Monday, a fuel leak Tuesday, followed by two dings Friday.​
