Hmmmm.....This Corrosion really makes me think deeply, like a sleuth, as to how it was conceived ......It was located under the Flight Engineers seat track in the cockpit. One or more combinations of the following could possibly cause the type of metal breakdown we see here.
#1. The Flight Engineer spilled an acidy substance such as Coffee or Cola.
#2. The Flight Engineer had on slushy snowboots caked in road salt that melted in flight and puddled on the floor.
#3. On a extremely turbulent flight The Flight Engineer Vomited on the floor.
#4. On a close call landing The Flight Engineer Urinated and it dripped onto the floor...........
What is the moral of the story? - For the love of God! Don't pee, puke or spill on Aluminum Aircraft parts!
