I'd like to know, from the owners who are already flying 320/360's ....
Has anyone had wing fuel tank leaks after having flown for a while?
Right out of the blue...after 90 hours....bam !....blue dye around
the aileron bellcrank inspection panel.  I have no idea where the
leak is starting, but it's showing up there.  Some suggestions have
the rigors of flight contributing to the delamination of fiberglass joints.
I would really hate to consider that....so I would be interested in hearing
of any similiarities. I believe the stains are due to a little fuel leaking
over an extended period of time (rather than alot of fuel leaking over a shorter
period).  Also, mine is a Fast Build, so all the rib/spar connections
and rib cap strips were already in place.

Thanks
