Greetings:
Melanie and I were watching Air Force One (Harrison Ford) the other
night and there was a scene where the Prez was in the bowels of the 747 and had to jerry-rig
some wiring to dump fuel. He used a butter knife to easily strip the insulation off
the wires. I know from having built MIL-SPEC and aerospace harnesses that only Teflon
insulation is used in those applications both for ruggedness and for safety (fumes)
reasons. There is no way in Hades that he could have cut through the insulation with
a butter knife. Add that one to the long list of bogus tech stuff in movies.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
