And THAT is why I took Bill Kenyon's statement as a funny on his part. I hope more than just Rockwell is pushing for this exemption.

Hi Brian! The aerospace and aeronautic industry sectors are currently not
exempt from the RoHS directive - the directive contains no wording
documenting such an exemption. However, as part of the current EU TAC
Stakeholder Consultation activity, an exemption (and wording for the
directive) has been proposed. Most folks agree that the RoHS directive was
not intended for the aerospace and aeronautic industry sectors but without
specific wording in the directive, "interpretation of intent" is not fact.
I imagine flying on the first Pbfree electronics plane using a July 1 2006
implementation deadline would be interesting - I'll watch it from the
ground! :)

The aerospace industry is exempted from RoHS, although Airbus Industries
are attempting, as far and as fast as possible, to comply. The problem
is that most of the essential electronics comes from the USA, notably
from Boeing (ironic, isn't it?). As for WEEE, one hopes that the
electronics are recovered from crash sites :-(
