Some things you have to get right the first time. Mountain climbing.
Skydiving. Single-hand ocean sailing. Building jet planes.

That's what all the bean counters are tried to sell to Boeing's
engineering management. They call it Six Sigma. No more certification or
acceptance testing.

Problems will be unearthed by the customer. Sometimes literally, at a
crash scene.

If it crashes precisely on the state line, where do they bury the
survivors? ;-)
