The information provided in this video is totally incorrect across the board! You're translating information from several Publications but confusing the years that the events took place incorrect the years even the obvious details are incorrect something as simple as the Something as simple as the Dzus fasteners. They were not Dzus fasteners they were Custom Design twist Lock Pins with no separate tool for removal
