The likely result of this will be the loss of AZ from our JV.

If it were a Boeing part you would say it is "bent." In Douglas terminology you say it is "pre-loaded." Here's a diagram for those visually inclined from the part of the Douglas assemblage manual that was recovered from the bathroom in Long Beach. It was found wrapped in dryer sheets under a copy of "How to smoke weed and not get caught."

No matter how much I try I cannot get in the backdoor. I keep periodically trying and no luck each and every time.
