Cracked wings

Yeah, that pretty much covers it. But it's still a bummer when that turns out to be more than simply metaphorical, as when it's the Air Force's wings that have the cracks.

“I don't want to write a letter, or have my successor write a letter, 'Dear Mr. and Mrs. Smith, your son or daughter are dead because the wing fell off on takeoff. We knew it was going to fall off, we just didn't know when.' That's kind of what we're getting down to,” Keys said.
Over to you, Commander Guy.
