Mike,
Nice. Well done. I have done a lot of lean projects in production flight test environments (new and rebuilt aircraft). I always find it interesting the simple things that are uncovered during the analysis phase of the lean project. My favorite was aircraft painting: At Sikorsky they painted the aircraft before flight test, just after they completed "high bay" QA. During the production flight test discovery, we found that the average aircraft had at least $15k in over and above charges to fix and repair painting problems: blemishes, scratches, etc. We moved the final paint process to just before delivery to the customer. O&A charges for paint dropped to less than 1K per helo.
