NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center Calibration Laboratory in California has a workload that is 80 percent related to items used in preparing aircraft for flight. To successfully complete that work takes a staff, which from left includes Paul Craig, James Kelly, David Swindle, Arnold Gonzales, Ronnie Juvinall, Anita Solorio and Alex Rivera. They are standing by a 1948 calibration tool they call the boat anchor, which still is a valued asset.
