So if you do not trust the A&P to tell you what part of the aircraft is
structurally sound enough what do you base your assertion on? Do you
completely disassemble every aircraft you fly and evaluate the
engineering design and structure of the entire aircraft yourself? Did
you require yourself to earn your structural engineernig degree before
working on your private? I'm still challenging your assertion that
trusting an A&P makes a pilot "dumb" and that only those of you
enlightened enough to have something you have yet to share with us
are not "dumb".

Look at the way that NOT solid 'steal' tube is attached to the airframe and
common sense says hands off. If I believed everything mechanics told me I
would have been killed at least 10 times.
