Sorry to be so stoopid, but I had the idea that an high quality weld, especially with a V - cut into the problem (crack) would be significantly stronger than the as - manufactured piece. Is this "garbage knowledge"? - - - or is it something contrary to FAA Standards?
I feel simple-minded now, thinking that an excellent aluminum weld could not repair a cracked casting. Please correct my simple soul. (Obviously it has occurred to me that this has come up in the past sixty years, but I have not seen any discussion of it. Perhaps it is that cut-and-dried and so that there is nothing to discuss at this point.) JBB
