Hi, For all the PA28-235 drivers in this group, have you ever noticed
any "little cracks" in the column of rivets on the top-side wing panel
above the flap on the pilot side?

This is a fairly common thing in 235s (and 180s, by the way). They used to
just stop-drill the cracks, but apparently there has been a new push to
disallow that sort of "fix" now. Re-skinning is the new, approved (and
very expensive) fix.

If you don't already belong to the Cherokee Pilots Association, you need to
join. See their website he http://www.piperowner.com/)

Their "Cherokee Chat" website (which you can't access until you're a member)
is the best thing out there for any Cherokee owner. This is a topic of
relatively frequent discussion, and you can find a wealth of knowledge
there.

Also, see the Cherokee 235/236 owner's group website
(http://www.pa28.com/cherokee235/home.htm ) for type-specific information.
