I Hve sent it through to Morph , still no reply -
The long and the short - its on the keel tube of the older Cutback / streak wing Windlass - the spreaderbar bolt chafes the keel tube - making a hole in it , Solowings recogmend an inspection and have repairs set out - Morph has it all , or send me your email and I will forward an attachment .

This is the damage the spreaderbar bolt could have done over time -

Wear and tear and a not so good AP inspection ,
Please check the cover over the spreaderbar joint plates
Check the picture of a damaged keel tube

Fly safely , Leprachaun
