It asserts that if the sheet had not been titanium it would not have caused the rupture of the fuel tank. I assumed story implied that titanium had been substituted for an original material on the DC-10, which is of course extremely unlikely. I was mistranslating "d'origine" as original when it means "originating from". I ought to keep my mouth shut.
