Top Flite 310 Structural Problem
Well another 3 flights today total 7 flights . On the third flight it wanted to roll on its own and was making a odd noise . I landed thank GOD.
After inspecting it I noticed that the left wing was coming apart. I also have a crack in the both of the retract pocket corners. This plane was not landed real hard. It did drop from about 12" on one landing.I believe the wing is not as structal as it needs to be with the weight of the engins. I will be calling tower. I'm thinking I might just remove all the sheeting and beef it up. Even if they gave me new wings their is alot of work setting up the gear doors. Dan
