Boeing has a record of every part I machined in 1966 and what ship it was used on

Bruce - That makes me feel real comfortable .. knowing that, when the wing drops off the 747, I'm flying in .. the investigators who pick over my remains, will be able to put down .. on another hundred reams of paper .. just WHY that wing fell off .. and WHO was responsible ..
Another oxymoron .. would have to be, in the U.S. military system of recording EVERY part, EVERY supplier, EVERY quality angle, and EVERY repair .. only to put the chopper into the sky .. to then have it blasted into scrap .. by a $500 shoulder-launched RPG .. probably built in a backyard foundry in Farkeruppestan .. by an illiterate radical fundamentalist ..
Ye-e-s, technology works .. but how little it takes .. to make it all fail ..
