            The aluminium allow samples were received from Gus SIDLA of the TSB as being cut from aluminium alloy coupons supplied for tests at CANMET by Larry FOGG of the Boeing Company.  The samples are bare on one side and painted on the other, except for the AA7075 sample, which is bare on both sides.  The Mylar and Tedlar samples were cut by me from blankets that I seized from a Swissair MD-11 aircraft while undergoing a ‘D’ check in Zurich.

            Your assistance in this matter is most appreciated.

(Clarificatiion:)  Within a few days, Lathem and Gerden will severely reprimand me for sending off these exhibits, although Foot had agreed to send them six months before.
