Thank you everyone who has responded to my posts. These forums are very helpful and provide a lot of insite and guidance...



Regarding these AD's it amazes me that the manufacturer is not liable. I have always heard of the huge amounts of liability that 

manufacturers take in the aviation field yet they are not held responsible for these blantantly defective parts in most of the issued  

AD's... very strange.

Thanks Skippy,



An interesting article for all to read!



I actually made the comment somewhat "tongue-in-cheek" . . . I have a

1940 Piper J4-A that I have to hand prop . . . if I get hurt . . . who do I

sue . . .  how long is long enough . . . there are financial and personal

risks when you mess with airplanes . . . It does seem to me the we pay a lot

for FAA Certification for less benefit than the cost . . . but there are few

guarantees that cover you after you get down the road a ways!



I'm lucky . . . my ECi cylinders (on my RV- are the more recent "Titan"

version and are unaffected by the AD . . . but who knows what tomorrow may

bring??



Thanks again,

Bob

 Bob C...There is a small section in the article that speaks to FAA

 certification.
