Calvin,

My further 2 cents worth is that since MIL-STD-2118 Notice 2 states that
the spec is cancelled and refers you to IPC-2223 or IPC-2221 instead, this
should be sufficient authorisation to use the IPC spec instead. i.e.

* Drg calls up MIL-STD-2118.
* You look up the MIL std and it tells you it's superseded another spec
(IPC-2223)
* You can then legitimately look up IPC-2223 as if it were MIL-STD-2118 and
read it as the requirement called up in the old drawings.

I can't vouch for whether or not there is any difference between the MIL
std content and the IPC std content, insofar as they cross-relate, but
there is no logical or arguable reason why you shouldn't be simplistic and
use the IPC std as if it were the MIL std called up in your drawings.

Calvin,

Go to the DSCC web site
http://www.dscc.dla.mil/Programs/MilSpec/DocSearch.asp and enter the
numeric for your specs in the search box.  I didn't check both, but 50884
is available as a pdf file.

Subject: [TN] MIL-P-50884 and MIL-STD-2118

Hello, everyone,

I am looking for MIL-P-50884 and MIL-STD-2118 (Flex, Rigid-Flex specs) that
are not longer active.
I know IPC-2223 replaces them but everybody list these specs in their
documentation. Can anyone help?

I found several sites that list them but the links are dead.

Thanks,

              \\\|///
