Yet it appears you now seem to support it, btw I've never posted about the
plastic box grounding until today

I am not a pilot but I was part owner of a Piper Cherokee for 5 years so no
I know nothing about flying.

15 years in the industry.

Correction, what was her name and what company did she work for?

What dealer?
