Hi Folks,
Despite the weather, I managed to fly some aerobatics last week.
During my post-flight check I found this:
Closer inspection revealed it was cracked right through and all along the weld on one side.
As our airplanes become older, we should expect and look out for this sort of thing.
Just like those corroded aileron operating arms.
We have found seven so far.
Have you checked yours?
Yours, Bob
