Well this certainly got weird fast. The thing is I get where nixrox is coming from, as I work in NDT and materials as well, however there has to be a dose of reality there as I also work in prototyping where you don't have the advantage of making 100 identical parts to study and fine tune a process and procedure. We get one shot to do it. This is why I have preached using the most conservative approach to constructing any one of part. Is there shoddy welding in some homebuilts....honestly yes. Are there failed welds both OEM and homebuilt.....yes. Luckily most are caught and the designs robust enough to survive to repair so nobody hears about them. Should we rely on this robustness alone....absolutely not. There is room for education and improvement in the homebuilt area and the EAA is in an excellent position to do so, if they should ever choose.
