Abstract:  
This article has been reprinted from "Flightline / Aircraftsman", the newsletter for the NAS Corpus Christi, Texas and Corpus Christi Army Depot. It used to take one to two hours to do; now it takes about two minutes to shot peen a part. Thanks to a semi-automated (computer operated) shot peening machine and three dedicated shot peening operators: Martin Yglesias, Daniel P. Lazo and Jill Van Vleet.
