Recall the incident whereby the pilots windshield blew out due to the incorrect thread pitch bolts being used to secure the windshield, those bolts were taken from a bin on the hangar floor.
Not exactly accurate. The bolt p/n was incorrectly selected from a shadow board. It was then requested from stores.
No bins on hangar floors.
