Oh how I *love* those references to second hand chit chat when there's
authoritative first hand info available:

I'm not aware of any other accidents of Robins which may be related to a
problem of glue voids. There were two accidents with CAP 10, but at that
time, they were still built by an unrelated company (and it wasn't a
glue problem).

As to your claim that there's no info about that accident on the Robin
web site: There is, in the FAQs. And Robin denies that the glue problem
was the cause of the accident. (I can't judge this myself, but of
course, glue voids in the main spar are uncomforting.)
