    Thanks, Alan. I was wondering how many planes have turned up with cracks is either place. grumpy On Feb 20, 2014, at 3:26 PM, Alan Searle <alan@airweigh.com.au> wrote: > > Hi Ya Grumpy, > > All you have to do is remove the fairing at the tailplane to inspect the stab main spar area.

    I just finished doing both insp's on the elevator and horz stab and found nothing wrong. I look at the back end carefully every year as I had a Swift that was known for cracks back there. It would be nice to have an account of how many a/c have been insp vs how many have found cracks and what type of operating environment they have been in. Any thoughts how we could do that?
