I respectfully request the Faa Consider the following concerning A/D 2007-16--14 in its "revised form" Due to the fact that there was insufficient structural testing, and only a "single source example shown that brought forth this A/D in the beginning. I feel that the following ideas should be considered during the revision of this A/D. 1. Consideration should be give to terminating compliance upon positive findings on the initial x-ray/ultrasound inspection on any give set of struts. 2. If terminating compliance isn't feasable then change time between inspections to 10 years or more for land based a/c 3. Add Univair, and or other manufactures of replacement parts to the list that now only the "Factory" holds for terminating action parts with no strings attached i.e. 337's and ect. 4. Possible termination of the A/D in its entirety 5. Definately allow inspections to be done "ON THE AIRCRAFT" This thinking is brought forward in view that more damage and structural compromises could be had by constantly removing the members, rather than doing inspection in place. NDT sources have indicated that inspections on the A/C is absolutely no problem and doesn't effect quality of the inspection results. I feel the further testing and removing members could result in more risk to than benefit to the safety of the aircraft.
