That's absolutley ridiculous but it happens with nearly all the part suppliers to the military. What that report fails to mention is just how fking useless DLA are at getting parts to the customer in a decent timescale.

Now does anyone want to start asking who has overall ownership for the support contract [procurement] for the UK chinnys?

This guy?



I was wondering what he would invest in once he'd used up all the hotels that came with the game.

[eharding]

Any idea a) what the coin next to the part is b) how much Boeing charged for it?

My guess is a 10 cent coin, supplied by Boeing for $150.
