This was posted to the Bearhawk Builder's List this afternoon:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Information received during a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
suspected unapproved parts investigation revealed that M&M International
Aerospace Metals, Inc. (M&M), located at 1382 West McNab Road, Fort
Lauderdale, FL 33309, may have knowingly sold raw metal that was offered
as meeting the applicable Mil Spec but did not. M&M sold the raw metal
to various distributors, type certificate holders, production approval
holders, experimental aircraft distributors, as well as a variety of
military and commercial applications. Evidence indicates that M&M may
have deliberately altered material certifications in order to satisfy
customer requirements when they knew that the material did not meet the
full requirements.

I just posted a query to Aircraft Spruce asking if they had made purchases
from M&M Metals and if they had, would they disclose the information to
customers? Also sent a similiar email to Murphy Air.

Just FYI
