The pressures of cost and schedule definitely have an impact . For C130's there was no grey area you had to pop a bird out every 30 days . You ever see a C130? There are a lot of parts on that bird . Controlling outside supply chain AND internal builds made me a heavy drinker 😋.

A few years ago there was a major fire at the propeller plant in England . They were sole source 🥺 . Not sure who's bright idea it was to sole source such a critical part but I am sure someone got a bonus for it 😡 . I think every Depot on the planet was called to pull in parts to keep the production on schedule . I don't miss any of my work life 😁
