As I'm fast suffering from 'wheneye' - it seems that the lessons of the 80's seem to have been forgotten, or is it more 'familiarity breeds contempt'?
The party line was always that Kapton is/was OK as long as it was installed correctly, kept clean and dry and not jumped on! Should you forget any of that and go for too tight bend radii or wiggly looming, throw in a splash of hydraulic oil and a touch of chafe - it was
lethal!
IIRC there used to be a couple of videos that graphically demonstrated 'arc tracking', one for aircrew that was somewhat less dramatic than the groundcrew one, it might be time to resurrect them!
