More instances of bad hangar packing and potential damage spotted;
Morning of Sunday 27th April,
The trailing edge of JAD's wing was resting on the wing of the Astir.
The wing tip was clear of the floor so a little movement by JAD could easily have damaged its trailing edge.
It looks like the tip was intended to be supported on the chair, but it had moved off it for some reason, possibly during a bit of later shuffling. Unintentional of course, but it shows we are still not being careful enough at the end of the day.
And, after packing on the Sunday;
This wooden trestle was jammed hard under the Alliance's wing, quite close to the root. If the glider moves at all, or the tyre deflates overnight, you can guarantee a crease in the wing.
This is not to try to point the finger at individuals, we all make mistakes and need to watch out for each other. This is collective carelessness, which will eventually result in damage causing expense and an aircraft lost to a repair shop. Let's all please keep an eye out in the hangar and question anything that does not look right.
Thanks!
