Abstract: A method performed by an as-applied data storage device while dispensing crop input products from RFID-tagged crop input containers by georeferenced locations. The method includes: a) reading product information from at least one RFID-tagged crop input container when an RFID tag reading device is operably connected to an RFID-tagged crop input container, where the RFID tag is factory installed by the manufacturer/formulator of the crop input product; b) calculating and recording as-applied information when the product is dispensed; c) transmitting the as-applied information to a data aggregator; and, d) utilizing said data aggregator for aggregating the as-applied information by georeferenced locations, where the aggregation ensures the as-applied information for that crop input is recorded in a consistent manner across the field or fields so-treated.

Abstract: A method for reducing the length of the forebody strakes along a fighter airplane involves modifying the outer contours of intermediate frame members. The original skin panels are removed. A strake contour portion on each intermediate frame member is then cut away. A replacement outer support will be secured to each intermediate frame member to fill the gap left by the cutting away of the strake contour portion. The replacement outer edge support is secured by fasteners and new skin panels then secured in place.
