Some of the more recent hubs were machined to the incorrect thickness and there is a concern of cracking on the underside. Interestingly these were the hubs that were supposed to have a 10000hr life up from the 3000hrs. The hubs need to have an ultrasonic check prior to the AD being lifted on the effected aircraft.
