Welding
Scroll through 11 pictures from welding a cockpit frame.
The cockpit opened during a flight and crashed down to the ground. It involved thin wallled 4130 chrome molybdeen tubes, the maintenance company knows our experience and ask us for the Repair.
We straightened the frame, calculated the heat plan and welded the cracks.
