What worries me more than anything else is that you claim to be a mid-sized aerospace company. If you are having problems finding documents, what happened to your traceability processes necessary for your QMS and how do you guarantee that employees use up-to-date documents? How did you handle the process in the past??? And, what does your QMS stipulate for records and traceability?

The two best books I have bought in the last few years and which I recommend my undergrad students in engineering on a regular basis are:

- The March of Unreason (ISBN 0199205620) by Dick Traverne:
                A discussion on new fundamentalism in science, politics and other areas. It advocates objective analysis of topics, rather than a fundamental view.

- The Visual Display of Quantitative Information (ISBN 0961392142) by Edward R. Tufte:
        An introduction on displaying data in an undistorted and objective manner.

In my opinion 2 books every engineer and scientist should at least have skimmed through once in their life.
