    IF I am not mistaken. two planes meeting have nothing to do with the arrise's, would'nt it be the domain of the air safety investigators?

    No, it would be Derek's domain because he is the expert on planes.

    I think it would depend on what the two planes were meeting with, if they were meeting with two really tall buildings it would be called "a good reason to invade an oil rich country"

    Oh you sinister person you! Or maybe your not left handed at all.
    As a first year apprentice in 1961 we "ARRISED" the timber so this "misuse " of the term has been around for a loooong time.

    actually I remember being told to "take an arris off that timber" when I was an apprentice rather than "put an arris on" I also remember it being one of the most tedious jobs.

    If the prefered term is now put an arris on, then, when told to put an arris on 500 lineal metres of rough hardwood framing the smart apprentice would simply sneak off and have a break, then tell the boss "I've checked all the timber and it's already got an arris on it"

    give a lazy man a difficult job.....................
