Everybody relax....
I did not say Cessna used inadequate materials when they built the bird 23 years ago.
I said that I had heard that Cessna didnt use the BEST material.
We all know that part of the process of engineering is to find the lowest priced material that will meet or exceed the requirement for the job. There is no evil or malice in doing that. Thats simple common sense and makes the plane affordable.
All I was saying is that there may be BETTER materials available to address the newly revealed areas in need of improvement....for a few planes.
I am not an engineer. I am barely a pilot. I am not second-guessing ANYONE or pointing fingers or accusations as anyone.
Thats all I meant.
