Hi Pete,
Actually, after posting that I could do the inspection, I
found out that some other people were having trouble with the drawings being
wrong. I am going to do my friends 47 Bonanza this weekend. If all goes well,
then I can do everyone else's. I wish I had known about the troubles that
other stations were having before I posted my ability to do the testing. I
can keep you posted if you are interested. Sorry for the inconvienance!

I believe the new "revised" AD no longer requires the "ultrasonic" skin
test. The test can supposed be done with mechanical tools, i.e.
micrometers, etc. We have three ships to do here at VGT. One of the
owners called Raytheon at length and determined the test could be done with
a depth micrometer at the point of skin overlap. I'm still thinking about
this method as it doesn't tell you much about thickness out in the "field"
of the skin, just the edge.
