I seem to recall there’s a BGA-authorized modification for the Slingsby T21 to replace the aluminium fuselage carrythrough attachment that holds the lower ends of the stabilizer struts, by an improved metal design that is less prone to corrosion and play. Anybody out there who has drawings, material specs and the BGA mod number for this?

Picture syas more than a 1000 words. The part I mean is circled in red.

Thanks Tony, but no. This is a heads-up regarding corrosion in the main wing lift strut fittings(especially the lower ones are exposed to quite a lot of water in wet operations). We carried out this inspection already, and we’re OK. Thank you anyway, for the effort.
