| Issue: | An inherent design flaw on the X-Wing Base drawing resulted in mis-placement of the "0" mark on a scale used for the preliminary measurement of a harvested graft. This scale is only used for initial measurement of the harvested graft and thus the error does not affect the final bundle length or the graft tensioning function of the X-Wing. |
