"Matt Whiting" wrote 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... Matt 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. -- Jim in NC
