Series 55: "Dust Up"
Nori is a mechanic working on landing gear assemblies on the F-35 flight line. She receives mixed signals from two different managers, potentially delaying a key test flight by replacing a part sooner than was required. In her rush to make up for lost time, she drops fasteners by the aircraft creating a major FOD (Foreign Object Debris) incident that goes unreported.
Be on the lookout for poor leadership skills, safety violations and pressure to not speak up.
