During an Annual inspection on a Warrior II, a broken landing gear attach bolt was found. It passed through the lower spar flange. In addition, all attach bolts were only "snug". An inspection as called out in Piper SB-1375A has been completed (including the eddy current test) and no further damage was found. Some over-size bolts will be required.
The problem is finding the required bolts. Does anyone know of a source for these bolts?
And, yes, since the technition was there performing the eddy current tests, the main spar attachment holes were also checked. They passed easily. Aircraft total time is just under 5000 hrs.
