Wayne... I'm a mechanical engineer...I have a pretty good understanding of all things mechanical. I don't believe I'd be talking through my hat if I said that a 20 year old aeronautical "glider" would be subjected to metal fatigue failures. There are many types of "fatigues" that are generated by forces including gravitational, atmospheric pressures, vibration, heat, mechanical transfer or just observe a ductile metal like aluminum work hardened by simply being exposed to oxygen.

Twenty years is a long time...even if the thing never left the hanger.

Regards,
Frank P.
