Question for all those affected by this SB. I have yet to install my horizontal stabilizer to the fuselage, so the entire structure, while completed years ago, is free and clear of the aircraft.
This SB looks pretty detailed and involves drilling out a lot of rivets and undoing a bit of construction! I'm not crazy about doing that on a "new" structure with no cracks anywhere.
I'm debating whether to just go ahead and do it before it's installed and be done with the SB or just install as is, and comply with the SB requirements during inspections.
What's the consensus amongst everyone and particularly the DARs and inspectors, since this covers all the -6, -7, -8 airplanes..??
