the source comes from what Boeing and spirit told our facility during their visits this week. Though the company I work for is not the cause of the problem forms, we took over the pickleforks parts in 2018. Spirit and Boeing have visited and seen our entire procedure from start to finish. They are very happy with our production of the pickleforks for the max 737 and the replacement forks we are building for the 737ng. We are the sole company in charge of making the forks now and the info I have about the grossly oversized holes is straight from Boeing and spirit themselves.
