I was wrong the F&W was correct it says two planes meeting.
I try and do new things twice.. the first time to see if I can do it.. the second time to see if I like it

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?

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"
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.....................
