A400M Wing news .....
Ecce Homo! Loquitur...
Yeah, I remember the GR5 wing. But we are talking differences in scale - and in design and construction, and in DA attention to the problem and instructions on how to deal with it, not issues previously in Airbus's remit.
Its a simple question - yes or no. No need to evade the answer - which you managed to miss giving....

I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could
I thought a Prescott was a functional SI unit incorporating mass as well as bulk.
That way the capacity could be expressed in milliPrescotsts, MP for short, and thus ensure that load weight and load volume are always maximum.

This is not the first airbus to have plastic components. Agreed, they have not been as large as a A400M wing. But there will be repair procedures in place for the other components. And as you say it is just a matter of scale. Despite recent problems within the company they are a professional outfit.

SI unit of load - the Prescott
PN - I think that you might have identified an important scientific breakthrough. Perhaps a paper to a refereed journal - perhaps the Inst of Physics?
The Prescott could be a useful unit to apply to functionless dunnage spread thinly so as to minimise its effect on anything important. It could be represented by a voluminous sack of sh1te whose mass will vary but generally progress to greater mass and volume whilst remaining functionless and unappealing. I would suggest an initial mass of around the 300 kg mark. It would be important to ensure that the sh1te load of Prescott should be evenly distributed since the Prescott would be unable to get to, or appreciate, the point.
In using the Prescott to faciliatationise the applicabilitisation of important matters previously brought to embear upon announcements soon to be made in another place, the Prescott should be applied with a sub-unit of verbal randomisationality that springs to work on the observer renderising him or her, because let us never forget that diversity is a key issue, helpless with mirth or depressive catatonia. It would be essential, of course, that the use of this unit must never involve punctuation.
Should you wish to co-author such a paper, I would like to name this sub-unit 'Verbal Diarrhoea' whilst stressing that it should remain strictly dimensionless since it only serves as an empty place holder.

Oh okay then....
.....Just out of interest, have they a fully worked BDR technique for CFRP components like the fin for when they get bullet holes and the like through them?
