    Jason Gaskill, an H-53 airframe production support engineer with the Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul Engineering Production Line Support Division at Fleet Readiness Center East (FRCE), and Michael Wells, a sheet metal worker in the H-53 Aircraft Components Shop at FRCE, examine the impressions left by pressure-sensitive film while checking contact surfaces on the mount feet of an H-53 spar fitting. The use of the pressure-sensitive film to identify high areas on the fitting is part of 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.
