Random Thoughts.

The Frames for an earlier type were supposed to be made by CNC machining to a tolerance of 3000th of an - inch perhaps? When the women swat team arrived there was a frame or...

Being an old retired guy, I had the time to read in on every post in PPRuNe's threads (plural). It was a long haul and would take a month . . . or two, to summarise.
