| Subject: | Re:Tailplane front spar crack |
Based on Dougs less than positive support for this fix, it would seem that a wise
thing to do would be to see the actual recommendations made by the FAA Designated
Engineering Representative (DER) regarding the repair of this specific
crack.
If the DER did indeed do his job and forward his repair recommendations to the
FAA then there should be something on record from the FAA regarding their decision
on the matter.
This is exactly the kind of thing that the FAA is there to accomplish. This is
clearly a "Safety of Flight" issue and is thus is highly important.
IMHO, the first thing to do is to get a copy of the DER's report. The second thing
to do is to find out if it was submitted to the FAA, followed by finding
out if it was approved or not.
If someone believes that an existing fix being used on other aircraft is unsafe,
and is basically just an accicent looking for a place to happen, then they should
probably get with people who have had this "unsafe" fix done and work with
them to achieve a safe resolution, that falls within the scope and definition
of proper maint. practices perscribed by the FAA. This would probably mean
starting a chain of discussion with a new DER, and without question the EAA would
be a great help in an effort like this (based on my personal experiences).
Bringing a issue like this to the attention of every CJ owner and adding it to
their Conditional Inspection checklist is a very smart thing to do. If you REALLY
want to go by the book, there is also a form that the FAA makes available
to report conditions like this for make and model aircraft. The problem with
this of course is that the FAA always errs on the side of safety and that could
easily result in the grounding of this make and model. The T-34 model aircraft
comes to mind.

Craig,
I think we may have had this discussion before, I can't recall for sure, but you
are correct in that an fix was engineered, but rather it was actually "accepted
by the FAA" is up for debate and really does not matter. It is in my opinion
a very poor fix indeed, it simply makes the center of the spar so stiff that
it cannot flex, the result is that it effectively shifts the stress the the
edges of the doubler as you have correctly stated. If in fact a DER actually
engineered this fix he needs to get back to his most basic directives and re
read 41-13-5. It would NEVER suggest using an spar doubler of that strength on
a alu structure, in that position, let alone something made of 4130 chromemoly
sheet. I will admit the solutions are very limited and the basic idea of a
U shaped reinforcement with a doubler plate on the back side is most likely the
best way to effect the repair but IMHO the reinforcement and the doubler should
be no heaver than .040 2024-T3 aluminum, NOT 4130 steel, no not even stainless
steel. The structure is made to flex, it cannot flex if you use steel.
Yes we have had no failures using the "engineered" fix, but that does not mean
the fix was done correctly, it simply means we have not had any failures yet.
I have done several with the alu and they have not failed either..................
gotta ask:
Was this newly discovered crack there last year at conditional?
Was that area previously checked?
Is checking for horiz spar cracks on the RPA's conditional inspection check list?
When I was in China many years ago I inquired about this cracking problem and was
told that it was caused by the cadets snap rolling the aircraft. I also questioned
them about inflight spar failures and was told that there never had been
one.
All good food for thought
Best to all from snowy Omak.

This condition was detected and addressed back in 1995, possibly before. My CJ
as well as three in the same shipment, owned by Alan Beaver and Bill Thornberry,
all had similar cracks. A California DER engineered a fix which was accepted
by the FAA. It consisted of a doubler made from 4130, bent to fit the inside
of the spar and affixed with bolts through the spar. I went a step further and
added 2024 ribs on each side to help spread the load so stress was not merely
shifted to the spar just outside the doubler.
Many other CJ's were repaired in this manner. Eleven hundred hours later and no
additional cracking. Old news, I'm surprised someone found an airframe without
the repair. *Every* CJ mechanic should be aware, it was documented numerous
times.

WOW.
For those of you who have never used this tool, be advised that the stock tool
wears very quickly and the weak point is the pin itself. Usually it will round
off or wear out. The pin will also tend to become sort of "egg shaped" with
continued usage and then puts un-even stress on the holes in the nut. Glad
to hear someone has addressed this issue.

Re the pin wrench:
Our pin wrench has a pin which in it which was in it's previous life,
roller bearing. We went to this after having many "standard" pins fail.
Blitz as I recall destroyed 2 of the standard pin wrenches. In fact, if
you have one of my pin wrenches with the std pin, send it back and I'll
replace the pin with the roller pin, @ no charge.

As I said, the standard wrench fails easily, and pretty quickly at that. I have
"destroyed" two as well. I never thought about taking one of the old wrenches
and actually installing a new pin. That is a great idea.
Bottom line is that you need a really hard pin. Hardened or roller bearing. I
am not a good enough mechanic to know which is better. In fact, I really am
a backyard mechanic when it comes to airplanes. A little better on Chevy racing
motors. :-)
Nice to have more than one choice. Also nice that Doug is replacing the original
models he sold. Good for you Doug.
On another subject, Cliff Coy did a wonderful job rebuilding my YAK-50 pneumatic
check valves recently. Mine are rather unique and hard to come by. He fixed
them, and very quickly too.

Take a good look at what it takes to replace that locking ring. Also consider
that the exhaust tubes on Yaks are made out of titanium.
Then beat your "mechanic" over the head with the channel locks. No... really!

Blitz,
No aspersions intended, my ham-handed friend!
But after wrench #2 it was you who convinced me that my pin wrenches just
might be a bit "weak in the pins", hence the roller pin upgrade and the
current "recall".
The upgraded "can't bust em" pin wrenches are still the same old price
$40.00 each.
Best from here,
Doug

| Subject: | Tailplane spar... |
Hi guys...
Funnily enough the New Zealand CAA just today issued an AD on the spar
elevator hole cracking.
I am told this was because the UK CAA had recently issued an AD on this so
our guys felt obliged to follow suit.
Obviously we have been inspecting this area for the last (nearly 20 years)
down here as well...
For your interest the AD text can be found at:
