Shevaun Jones, a sheet metal worker in the H-53 Aircraft Components Shop at Fleet Readiness Center East (FRCE), uses a feeler gauge to check for excessive gaps on the mount feet of an H-53 spar fitting. The gap check is one step in a new procedure developed and refined by a team of artisans and engineers at FRCE in order to improve the manner in which the aircraft’s spar fittings are evaluated for fit, resulting in a higher acceptance rate and faster turnaround times for the components.
