Default Grob Astir AD spar spigots

FYI - An AD for this issue was put out in Canada many years ago
(February 1991)! Owners should check the logs to see if your 102 came
from Canada. If so, it probably has the spar spigot replacement done.
What took the FAA so long on this one?

I don't know why the FAA waited this long, but the timing really
sucks.

Grob Systems in the US just closed shop and the repair stations that I
called have never done this before. One said that they referred that
kind of work to Grob, which is no longer an option.

Does anyone know of a shop in the US (or Canada) that did this work ?
Please send me contact information.

Finally, I created a yahoo group to discuss Grob sailplane matters
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/grob_sailplanes/). How to deal with
this AD is the 1st matter of buisness.
