I have two flop tubes for inverted flight. Since they have to be replaced every 5 years or so, thinking that sounds like a good schedule for an A&P led condition inspection. I’m also hoping that TS Flightlines can come up with a permanent flop tube replacement at some point.

I’m curious how often Extras or MX or Gamebirds need to replace their flop tubes. Anyone know?
