There are so many FReepers who know so much about any topic. I can almost always count on getting my questions answered. Thanks to both of you, I’ve learned some new trivia to fill in empty spots in my head.
I retired in 2012 after working for Hexcel (structural honeycomb for aviation) more than 20 years. I think I’ve made or inspected something for most all of these companies and quite a few more including some stuff for the space shuttle. I hope nothing I made ever fell off on one of your hard landings! :o(
