I can't talk about details but I know of large industry-leading aerospace manufacturers who don't use MMC for flight parts because they need batch-level part tracking for failure investigations, and MMC doesn't offer that.
Pretty sure the USAF doesn’t care too much about the batch number for the tricycle the tech uses to get to the plane…
But I also wouldn’t be surprised to find out that a government auditor complained about it too
I wasn't talking about using MMC for aviation parts; I was referring to the industrial tricycles.
