In a new documentary, Broken Dreams: The Boeing 787, current and retired Boeing employees discuss their worries about quality control with Al Jazeera's Investigative Unit.
Boeing's 787 "Dreamliner", which made its first commercial flight in late 2011, has been dogged with problems since plans for its launch were announced in 2003.
Two battery failures in January 2013 sparked safety fears and led to fleets being temporarily grounded worldwide for over three months.
Boeing says it does not compromise on product safety or quality.
Whistleblower
A worker at one of two Boeing 787 assembly lines in Charleston, in the US state of South Carolina, contacted Al Jazeera's Investigative Unit to share his worries about the "Dreamliner".
The worker, speaking on condition of anonymity, says "with all the problems reported on the 787, there's 90 percent that's getting swept away".
He describes the troubles with the plane as "an iceberg". He claims only 10 percent of problems are visible to the flying public, with the rest "hushed up".
"I've seen a lot of things that should not go on at an airplane plant," the worker says. "It's been eating me alive to know what I know, and have no avenue, no venue to say anything."
