This relevant accident happened in 2003. Before I get my nickers in a twist, I'd like to know whether the manufacturing deficiencies have been addressed in the intervening 16 years. SH issued an AD on affected ships. Presumably all were inspected and repaired as needed a long time ago. I recall that SH did take action to document the process areas that had been done only by hands on training. I don't have written info on this. SH stepped up on this and did what I consider a good job when the issue was identified. I had an affected glider at the time and the inspection was prompt, thorough, and cost free. UH
