Indeed Dervish, and yet still to be declared as such. It was not always so though, a not dissimilar issue affected the Handley Page Hastings in the 60's. An elevator hinge outrigger bracket detached due failure of the securing bolts. All 41 on board perished. The entire RAF Fleet was immediately grounded, and remained so until inspection and repairs were conducted and airworthiness restored.
