I am not involved with a duo but of the three inspected so far by our local
repair shop all required repairs, a 4th has still to be inspected.

Enough time has past such that several DuoDiscus wings must have been
inspected. However, there have been no reports as to what was found
during
the inspection or what, if anything had to be done. All owner should
communicate with each other so that we all can have a better handle on
what
is happening to the fleet. I would like to request that all owners
provide
the following information when available. It would be appropriate to
obtain
data for all ships; those that passed and those that failed.
1) Serial Number
2) Any problems doing the inspection
3) Results of the inspection
4) What repairs, if any, were required
5) Cost or reimbursement from Schempp-Hirth
6) Any other info that you would care to share.
Some voids were found in the spar of the ship that I am involved with (S/N
217). In one spot a wire could be inserted for what appeared to be the
full
width of the spar cap. The ship was transported to M & H for a "second
opinion" and any repairs as required. I will provide additional info when
the ship is returned home.
