Hello, I fly a 1979 Nimbus 2 carbon, and since a few years I hear a cracking noise behind me. That noise occurs more often after a few hours of flight, maybe related to temperature change with altitude. You can hear the cracking noise in this video:

Did you already hear that noise? how do you think I can fix this ? do you think it is dangerous?

Thank you for help and advice


The sound does not seem to me to be the usual lift pin type noise. I could not associate with apparent changes in loading of the ship.
For the heck of it I'd look for something in the ventilation system.
