    Special “honeycomb” is used for potting repairs on carbon fiber patches during CV-22 Osprey advanced composite training at Royal Air Force Mildenhall, England, March 14, 2022. The training was taught by a CV-22 engineer and provided U.S. Air Force Airmen from RAF Mildenhall and RAF Lakenheath aircraft structural maintenance and aircraft metals technology backshops the opportunity to enhance their ability to perform composite repairs more efficiently.

    A person is using a small rotary cutting or grinding disc tool against a metal workpiece secured in a bench vise, producing a dramatic shower of bright sparks. The image is captured in sharp focus at the point of contact, with the background intentionally blurred. The setting appears to be a metalworking workshop or machine shop.
    A young male worker in a military-style olive green t-shirt is grinding or cutting a metal piece secured in a bench vise, producing visible sparks. He is wearing a protective face shield pushed up on his head and appears to have an ear plug in his right ear. The setting is an industrial workshop or maintenance facility with various equipment visible in the background.
    Four individuals are working in what appears to be a military maintenance or technical training facility. Three appear to be military personnel in uniform while one civilian instructor or technician in a dark polo shirt with a '122' logo is overseeing the work. They are gathered around a workbench with electronic or mechanical equipment, likely engaged in a hands-on technical training exercise.
    A close-up photograph shows a piece of corrugated cardboard with a circular hole cut through it, revealing a honeycomb-like internal structure with a reddish-orange color. In the background, a person is working at a table, appearing to cut or assemble similar cardboard materials. The setting appears to be a workshop or classroom environment.
    The image shows a large industrial storage facility containing numerous vertical metal sheets or panels stored upright in organized racks. The sheets appear to be various types of metal stock, including what looks like stainless steel, aluminum, and other alloys, stored in a warehouse or metal supply facility. Labels and identification tags are visible on several of the sheets.
