Bob,
I understand from Francis Donaldson that the CAA were a bit ahead of the
game and that PFA 247/FSB-004 Issue 4 is being distributed and will be
posted on the PFA web site tomorrow. The use of Loctite will then allow the
10 hour inspection to revert to an annual inspection.
I asked Francis specifically about your Torque Tube clamps and the 10 hour
inspection, and he said that you would have to make a case to the PFA for
aircraft fitted with your clamps to be exempt from the 10 hour inspection --
no doubt he would wish to know how many aircraft had been fitted and whether
any player had been found during the 10 hour inspections already carried
out.
Please argue your case with Francis: you don't need to convince me of the
effectiveness of your clamps.
Regards
Mike

Hi! Richard/all
I have it from Andy Draper that Issue 4 is to do with the use of
Loctite. However I also have assurances that those with my PFA approved
Torque Tube clamps are exempt from the Loctite requirement. ...Not sure
yet about the 10 hour inspection requirement.. however.

I got this through the post from the CAA this morning.
It refers to PFA 247/FSB-004 Issue 4.
I have issue three. Where is issue 4 ?
