Shudder....

My wife's present specialty is runway utility and lighting design
for upgrades of major airports and conversions of military airfields
to civilian use. Although she doesn't go onto the jobsite - that's
done by electrical contractors on bid - she has mentioned many times
that the "as-installed" drawings were missing or they were inaccurate.
I'm thinking of two particular SAC bases (one is still active, the
other is a conversion) that she's working on now which I had
"intimate familiarity with" when I worked for SAC 40 years ago.
Like "old home week"..... ggg
