SUMMARY OF BULLETIN: Due to a slightly increased amount of irregularity in the form of material inclusions some isolated problems were detected on the gear box gear set in the field. Such material inclusions in the area of the tooth base can lead to tooth break under severe operating conditions. Affected gear sets must be replaced. CHECKING IF YOUR ENGINE, GEARBOX OR GEAR SET IS AFFECTED; Engine serial number and gear box serial number must be checked against the affected serial number ranges listed in the applicable SB. For engines which have had the gear box previously removed for service and have had the original gear set changed, the replacement gear set must also be checked against the affected serial number ranges listed in the SB to determine if the gear set is affected. COMPLIANCE: During the next maintenance event or at the latest April 30th 2008. ADDITIONAL EXPANDED VIDEO INSTRUCTIONS: A special on-line video has been developed to supplement this mandatory SB and add further information on checking for affected serial numbers. As well this video provides further detailed instructions for proper removal and replacement of the gear box and special material and tool requirements.

How are things in hfd=85cold and wet I imagime. Hope you had a good Xmas. With reference to my =93problem=94 I can really explain why some of the injection is not working for me. Partly the problem is a lot of small voids and some big ones. I think the problem arises from not putting one sufficient redux when I bonded the module in. If I was doing the process again I think I would invert the thing that is to say put the cockpit module on its back and glue the hull to it. You risk of course redux running into controls etc. alternatively I would support the fuse in something that allowed it to flex to the shape of the cockpit module. Too late now.
