Slow Sunday. One of my co-members at my aviation group (Columbia Aviation Association) is the North American, CEO for SAPA RC one of the world’s largest specialty manufacturer’s of aluminum products. His firm has contributed to an interactive website to help users of aluminum to better understand important issues – “Aluminum Matter”.
John Noordwijk, is both an avid sailor and pilot (owning a Cirrus) but also curious on the RV-10 build and issues which arise. Several of SAPA’s engineers provide technical support to this website.

If you take the time to core deeper, you will find a wealth of explanations, graphics and questions (for you to answer) that can make us all better manufacturers of aircraft. Three of their products are 2024, 3003 and 7075 which hold value with aviation construction. I am seeing several of the forms of corrosion in the aircraft I work on. Understanding what contributes to it allows us a path towards causal/corrective actions.
