True, but we don't have 50 years of experience with composites in
service. Who knows what their deterioration/age related failure modes
may be? Remember, it took a couple of fatal accidents to begin to
understand fatigue and corrosion issues in aluminum...

My outrage is not whether the composites have a problem, but the method with
which they are to determine if there is a problem.

With some question (there must be a concern, hence an AD) there HAS to be a
better way than a tap test. It does nothing for my confidence.
