page 37 - the article titled - "US Navy Test Pilots are central to the
crewed starliner mission"
may 2023 - while looking forward to a july 2023 launch - a new risk
was identified - "possible flammability risk associated with extensive
runs of tape used to protect electrical wiring from chafing"
"nearly a mile of the potentially flammable tape has been removed and
protective barriers for fire prevention have been installed"
=====================
sounds like some fire protection engineer screwed up - seems like in
space that everything is a potential fire hazard - so either you use
non flammable material - or - use keep any flammable material away
from any ignition sources
maybe they use duck tape instead of duct tape
