Absolutely not true as regards aircraft.   Crimping is done in most cases 
for expediency.  I am not debating quality.  I am saying that RF cables in 
aircraft are still using soldered on center pins for BNC, TNC, C, HN, N, 
connectors across the board on military aircraft in the United States, and 
also with many General Aviation aircraft.  I have no experience with 
commercial carriers, so I will leave that to someone else to comment on.
