There were quite a few ADs around the tail and the main spars. Most of the guys I know have had them mostly sorted out. IIRC the main spar is inspected at 120hrs and the tail at 80, or something like that. There is a lot of info about them on the T-34 Association website at
http://www.t-34.com/

Hope that helps.

Saville, it is nice to read that you no longer need to put on brightly colored tight suits and get into confined spaces with a bunch of other sweaty men. Repent and ye may yet be saved.


yea verily, Brother Bill, so there's hope for this poor sinner yet?

As you can see below I wasn't into the brightly colored suits (I'm on the right). But as it was the 70's and I was living in the South at the time, there were the requisite sideburns :)

But these days I see no reason to invest time in skydiving. It takes a LOT of time and I got what I needed from it.
