Just inspected my circa 1994 RV-6 for both the stab spar and elevator spar cracks per the respective SB's and found nothing questionable. Whew.

But that's probably a pretty high percentage of "cracks found" because its more likely that someone finding a crack would report it to Van's than someone not finding a crack. 10% seems crazy high especially considering that it took this long to "discover".

Seems like everyone should report their findings to Van's good or bad so that their stats are realistic.

Just send them to "support(at)vansaircraft". Included my N number and Serial number.
