The EU has already admitted lead-free soldering is substandard.

Lead-free electronics are more prone to failure than the decades-old proven methods of construction.

Lead-free construction fails in comparison to traditional electronics manufacture in three key areas: vibrational durability, extreme temperature, and heat/cool cycle performances. Just say no to RoHS on aircraft.
