My airplane was down for nearly a year with a horizontal replacement. Got the new on one, signed all the 337s, the annual, all the other stuff. Went flying. 25 hours later, the left leading edge inboard spar broke. It looked good when we had the skin off, but it wasn't
We have a beautiful shop and will probably fabricate one. (We do have the drawings)
If it can go wrong, ,,,,

Re: If it can go wrong, ,,,,
Please post some pics of the broken parts. Very curious about potential problem areas. Thanks.
