Hexcel (HXL -0.79%), a leading supplier of advanced composite materials, is best described as the "nearly" stock of the aerospace sector. However, its time will surely come, and its long-term growth prospects remain excellent.

Hexcel's Q2 revenues outpace forecasts, but shrinking margins and lower commercial aerospace sales volume weigh on results.
