I had another sad case come into the shop this morning. PLEASE make sure that your mechanic checks and removes any foam blocks in the wing spar box. It gets wet and starts corroding the lower wing spar bolts. I always throw it away when one comes into the shop. I wonder how many more flights it would have made before the wing came off.
