Peak baggers (Scott, Tony + others) will likely be heading out earlier on Saturday or even Friday. I am not co-ordinating this -- Scott seems to emerged as the informal leader for this part.

You do find aluminum welds on aircraft, but more so on post WWII aircraft. From the way this part is bent, I would say it is not off of a jet aircraft. Jet aircraft aluminum tends to be thicker and wi ... |
