I started work at GE Aerospace in '89. Soon afterwards I was introduced to CMM, and discovered they were level 2, getting ready to go to level 3. The first reference I can find to it is from '93, but I'm pretty sure I heard about it before then. Last I heard they (now part of LMC) were at level 4, shooting for 5. -- T.E.D. -----------== Posted via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==---------- http://www.dejanews.com/ Search, Read, Discuss, or Start Your Own
