I thought they had lots of mechanically related operational issues with them.

They are in fact operational. I don't know how they've done specifically, but I'd say that given all the attention they've had every time ANYTHING happened during development, not hearing anything means that they've done okay.

I saw one of these yesterday leaving the airshow they put on this last Saturday in Louisville, KY.

Proof that with enough money, you can make anything fly...I think they are over 50 million per copy now...
