Hi Kevin, I'm in Adelaide
I also got the AWB and went straight to the LAME and asked how seriously he checked the cables during last annual I think I got the "all care no responsibility answer"
So I'm trying to get a better understanding of the situation with a few questions:
1. Your example is a pretty old serial number did the design or cable part number change during production
2. Did your cable crimp ferrule show any signs of corrosion
3. Did the cable or other components show any sign of corrosion
4. Is there any wear on the cable or components that can be contributed to multiple parts abrading each other
5. Are there any other visible signs prior to removing cables
6. Do you think this failure is related to
Atmospheric corrosion
Stress corrosion
Tensile stress
Mechanical stress ie. routing, or
fatigue
I suppose what I'm asking is this related to the earlier models, high cycle, corrosion or some other factor which will help me build a picture and maybe believe what I am being told by the maintenance guys
Regards ............. Wayne
