I was going to write them a check, but not if I have to wait 2 years.

I used to make (measure) parts, Gulfstream doesn't do cheap. Where others would have a built up former-bulkhead with sheetmetal and stringers Gulfstream  designed bulkheads machined from solid material. Not the exact part we made in this picture but very similar. gulfstream was also the worst about part revisions. We would program up a part, make 5 and then we would get a major revision and do it all again. They did pay good for the parts we made.
