Dear me. I was correcting you under the assumption that you hadn't read the docket and had just made a mistake.

I'm not sure any discussion with someone who wants to call something that failed at 1.93 times Limit Load "seriously weakened" is going to be very fruitful. I'm curious - do you call the A380 and B777 wings "seriously weakened" also?

Maybe, but whatever the problems were, they obviously didn't have much to do with why the tail broke off AA587.
