Randy, like all of us, you make your decisions based on your observations. If it is working for you, that's great.

I think I will let the AD that specifically mentions AE speak for itself. "unsafe condition" . It is located at the very top of this post by Larry. It's from the FAA. As well as comments made by the structural engineers who had to undue the damage caused by shoddy installation work which included drilling through spar caps and bending/cutting ribs. They had never seen such poor workmanship. This isn't about a badly designed mod. It's about all the poor installation jobs that were done in installing the mod. The damage was done at installation.
For my part I have given AE the opportunity to pay for the damage and only the damage that they caused. Nothing more. No fuel, no loss of enjoyment etc. They have blown me off so now it's in the hands of my lawyers.
I would get your work done quickly if I were you. The facts are there. It's all in the AD.

Randy, it is your choice who you get your work done by. I truly wish you good luck and pray that you have thousands of hours of safe flying.
