Folks.

We have had a load of assembled PCB's in from a new supplier.
trouble is they are not to drawing and i'm being asked if we can accept them. The problem is that
we have a flying lead connected to two through hole pillars. The drawing requires a 270 degree hook
on the wire before it is soldered to the post. The subbies have soldered the wire parallel to the post (straight up and down)

Question: is this as good as the requested hook method
        :will there be reliability problems in the future
        :would vibration /shock tests be required to prove the deviation is acceptable
        :should we just reurn to the subbie for correctio ;to drawing'

any help 'donations' gratefully accepted
