I thought Kapton was outlawed after the Bucanner crashes a few years back?

With a little chaffing the Kapton dust proved to be a small pile of explosive material when the wiring wore through to arcing with the airframe.

Can't believe that it could ever be approved again.

Then again, with the right brown envelope anything is possible.
